Sorry it’s so much, but I didn’t know what to pick through. Sometimes the Sims 2 freezes, but not to much. I would like to know if the Sims 3 will run smoothly and nice. If not, please suggest any upgrades that are only necessary for it thanks!

I have installed both Warhammer online and FFXI on my Toshiba Satellite model A305-S6858 which has Vista on it. Warhammer looks fine however FFXI isn’t looking correct with mostly the characters and mobs in the game. They flicker and appear to only show some of the colors or all the colors and parts of the character or mob are missing.

I’m not sure what settings I need to change if I can to make this work correctly. I have installed the newest DirectX and video drivers and still not working properly and this is even after I reinstalled the OS. Which I did for other reason.

I am probably giving more info than needed or maybe not enough.. However if someone can direct me the direction needed to get this solved I would be most greatful!

Thanks ahead of time!
Jen

I found out some info and I am looking for a Intel X3100 (GM965 chipset) driver thats 64 bit…could only find the 32 bit one… Its a specail fix for the graphic issue I am having…so if anyone knows of where I can find it that would be great! Untill then I will keep searching. Thanks!
A friend of mine found a link on intels site that has the 64 bit version downloadable.

http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Product_Filter.aspx?ProductID=2800&lang=eng

If link wont work, just do the following:
You go to Intels main page

click downloads under work section. (takes you to a new window)

Select "Graphics" on the left side
Select "laptop graphic contollers"
Select "Mobile Intel 965 express chipset family" (takes you to a new window)

Just select the OS and go from there. As of last night they did have the vista home premium for downloading. I am not sure for the othe other os downloads.

Hope this helps out!
When I edit the question stating about the 64 bit driver being found, that was when I had the issue resolved… So thanks to you all for replying. Just glad I can play now with graphics back to normal.
