first things first i deeply apologise if this is in the wrong location, i just really need help with this because i am really confused.
Okay, so i downloaded The Sims™ 2 Ultimate Collection when it first came out. Now i played for a while, had a lot of fun, and then went out to look for custom content. (Ended up finding someone on tumblr who game me a massive 13000+ item folder with all her sims 2 CC on it) anyway this isn't important.
Now at first it was fine, it ran perfectly with the cc, had no issues. Then it started crashing. I made a new family one day and when i went to go change the sims hair, it crashed. I thought it was a 1 time thing but nope. Every time i go to change a sims hair or go to make a family, or something it crashes. I tried waiting in the neighbourhood for a while to see if it would randomly crash. Nothing. I deleted the CC to see if it was the cause. (Nothing~~~) it crashed again. This is really bugging me cause sims 2 is my favourite game out of all of them and i am really upset i dont get to play it now.
I went looking through some files but found nothing, tried to follow some tutorials but i get distracted really easily and so i kept getting confused, im not that computer smart and don't really understand it so when people use these big complex words about fixing it i get insanely confused. I don't even know what RAM is. Well, i keep getting off topic i apologise. Now back to the tutorial i was reading, it said something about the config-log, so i went into the txt file and started reading both theirs and mine, then something seemed odd. Name (database): Intel® HD Graphics 3000 <<NOT FOUND IN DATABASE!>> this person didn't have that and i thought that must be the cause, (or something) if not then f**k i might as well just give up. anyway im not really sure how to explain this any further but here is the full config log, if theres something that isn't right please tell me and try to give me a simple step by step tutorial, it doesn't have to be really simple as if you're trying to explain to a toddler. just try to make it sound simple enough... (this makes no sense im sorry)
