Complete Sim Fanatic

Okay I own every single Sims game and expansion pack. Except for the Sims Online because I don't like online games...period. So when the Sims 2 came out I was syked! I thought 'wow this is going to be so cool'. A few months before I bought the game I bought a brand new $1100 laptop computer. My computer barely runs the Sims 2. It runs my other Sims 1 games, with every expansion pack installed, and anyone who plays the Sims knows that the more expansion packs you have the better your computer you have to have. The whole purpose for buying such a nice laptop was so that I could play the Sims games the way they were meant to be played, and with all my expansion packs my Sims 1 games run great even on triple speed with all the details turned on. But I have to use my husbands computer to play the Sims 2. It runs great on his computer but not my laptop, which is ridiculous because I have a faster processor than he does. I think the issue is with the graphics card that is built into the laptop and I have no idea how to upgrade it, nor do I think I want to spend the money to upgrade it if I could, because every other game I have whether it be the Sims or Black&White, all my games run great EXCEPT for the Sims 2, which runs really slow and sort of choppy.... so you definately better make sure you have a super great computer before buying the Sims 2! My computer really is great and fast and expensive and all that... and less than 2 months old when I bought the Sims 2 (which I bought when it first came out, so when I bought my computer it was one of the best out there so the Sims 2 should run on it)
