Laggy and low fps in The Sims 2

Hello,

I tried to post this two times by now, but it somehow got deleted the first time, and the second time. Nevermind.
I have a pretty stupid problem with the game. Back in the days, I had the Sims 2 with a few expansion packs. The game ran pretty good on my PC, it wasnt a killer machine but It got what it takes to run the game smooth, and at 60FPS /FPS=Frames per second.

I have Windows 7, the 64bit version to be precise, 8GB of RAM ( The Sims uses 4GB, i saw the method on this forum and used it to increase the amount the game could use, because it was locked at 1GB). My graphic card has 2GB, my CPU has 4 cores, each 1,9 Ghz, -but my CPU gets overclocked to 2,4Ghz when playing the game, i can set it to 2,8Ghz, but that doesnt change anything.

Now, I have a laptop, it is a pretty good one in my opinion, and it should handle The Sims 2 well, since it runs The Sims 3 and 4 without any problems at all. What bothers me is that the game runs at 20-30FPS when inside of a family (for example in the Goth family). If I switch to a heavily loaded community lot, or house, the game will drop to 20FPS (the more objects on the lot, the less FPS I get).

I dont have any CC (maybe a few, but it is under 30MB alltogether). I tried deleting everything. I am now going to write what I have tried.

I have tried:
- Reinstalling the game (I have The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection which I have gotten from Origin)
- No CC
- Changing the Graphics Rules and Video Cards file in both the CSConfig and Config folders
- Changing how much RAM the game uses
- Removing SECUROM and adding the noDVD crack
- Removing the *tm* from the registry
- Doing the thing with DEP (also saw this on the forum)
- Changing my resolution from FULLHD (1920*1080) to HD (1368x768)
- Disabeling smooth edges (also by default i have it on the max)
- Disabeling vsync, and also enabling it to see if it makes a difference
- Setting the compatibility mode to every possible OS
- Tried windowed mode
- Setting the CPU1 and 2, both, didnt work

The Sims 2 uses my better graphic card, because I do have two, I am not a noob when it comes to PCs and so on, so I dont think that the error is really obvious. So I am seeking for help.
I added EVERYTHING in the attachment that could be of any help.

Thanks in advance,
Prince
