    hi there!

    please excuse my ignorance, i'm not very tech savvy!

    i have a VGN-FS980 and have been trying to play the Sims 3. it keeps crashing and i'm wondering if i should buy a new video card? (if so, where and what should i buy???) or will vaio's just not support the game?

    any help is appreciated! :)

    thank you,
    kimberly

    Video cards are not upgradable in Sony.

    You might want to verify your system's configuration against Sims 3 system requirements and see.

    cheers ...
