Will the sims PC game download and run on a laptop with windows 7?

Lacy

I wanted to run down to the store and ge tthe sims pc game, but I don't know if it is compatible or will even download or work on my computer.

My Dell Laptop is only 1 year and a half old, is windows 7, XP and PC on the box description. Will the game be compatible? I don't want to spend 30 dollars on a game that won't work.

Answer
I have a Windows 7 computer (I've also had it for a year) and the Sims 3 and all of its expansion packs work on fine. The Sims 3 is also compatible with Windows 7, XP, and I believe Vista as well.

Laptop with Windows 7 or PC with Windows XP for gaming?

Tommy

I'm currently using a Toshiba Satellite S875 laptop for gaming. It has an Intel HD Family graphics card, which I realize is terrible for gaming. Apperently, it is immpossible to change the graphics card on a laptop. Should I continue using this laptop for gaming, or should I use an old Windows XP computer I have, on which i could change the graphics card/ anything else i could change?

I guess the question is, Better gaming PC with Laptop with Windows 7, or Computer with Windows XP?

Also, I can get Windows 8 for $15 at Best Buy, If i used this on my XP, would it give me Windows 7, making it better to build into a gaming PC?

Answer
Hello,

In my view, you should go for the best graphics card. I donât think that there will be much of a difference if you play games on XP or win 7. But to get the best out of the game, you need to go for the best graphic card. In my view, an Intel HD family graphics card is good.

Regarding your windows 8 question, it is better if you stay out of win 8 for now. All my friends who are using windows 8 are facing problems with it. May be it is also the new touch interface which is confusing them. But do not go for windows 8 and just go for Windows 7 PC.

Are all Windows 7/Vista Laptops good/decent gaming laptops?

I want to buy a laptop this summer ( a gaming one ) but i don't know which cheap one i should buy. I usually have a vista computer when i buy one, so i want to know if a Windows 7 or Vista laptop is at least a decent gaming laptop

Answer
To answer the question you asked.. No. Not all Windows 7/Vista laptops are good or decent gaming laptops.

The word Cheap and the phrase Gaming Laptop do not go together.

You should realize that if a laptop can play games well, it can do EVERYTHING ELSE well. So, if a laptop is great for games, video editing, multi-media dislay, internet usage, office usage, you-name-it usage, then why would it ever be cheap? The laptops that are cheap, are good for surfing the net and watching movies.

Just because it has Windows 7 or Vista, does not automatically make it a powerful laptop.

gaming on my windows 7 laptop?

Ciaran S

i got a windows 7 laptop 64 bit 4 gb ram 2.1 processor and 1.5 gb video ram but my graphics card is like 150 i think so im wondering if i can get one of those external graphic cards or gamer card ? people are sayin the problem is the windows 7 but cant imagine it being thayt mcuh of a problem ? i can go to the propeties on games and set to run on xp or vista it solves some problems on starting games up so if there is a way to upgrade graphics with out opening laptop and voiding the warranty please help

Answer
It really depends on what video card your laptop is using. In general, most laptops are horrible for gaming due to their integrated graphics.

If you have an integrated graphics card - say GeForce 6150 - it won't play most graphic games. Those that can start will have horrible single digit frame rates.

If you happen to have gotten a fairly expensive laptop ($800+) with the GeForce 150M graphics card, it will play most games at decent frame rates (sometimes in the low-mid video setting). I rather doubt this is the case, because most laptops with discrete/separate video cards have better than 2.1 GHz cpus.

Unfortunately, for the vast majority of laptops, there is no way to upgrade the video card.

PhysX Addi

I will usually play on an Xbox 360, but there are games for my laptop (windows 7) like Guild Wars 2, Team Fortress 2 and many other games on Steam (free-to-play) that i would like to play. However, I just don't have required graphic card need for these games and i will miss out on these games.

How do I get my X7 gaming mouse to work on Windows 7?

best gaming laptops windows 7 image

I recently bought an X7 gaming mouse for my m15x laptop running windows 7. Does anyone know how I can download the proper drivers to make it work on windows 7? I've scoured the packaging, and it does not say which model the mouse is. Any help would be much appreciated.
Actually, one of the problems is that I cannot find the model number of the mouse on the packaging.
I know the serial number is 2618706, but that's all.

Answer
Get the drivers from here: http://www.x7.cn/en/download.asp

Where is a store I can buy good quality gaming laptops that use Windows 7?

Who Man 10

I want an actual store that sells laptops MEANT FOR gaming, that use Windows 7. Thanks, I couldnt find any myself.

Answer
Back in the day, Alienware used to be THE gaming computer brand of choice but now that Dell bought them out it's little more than an overpriced Dell XPS rig. I personally prefer Dells over any other manufacture because of the popularity of them and the ease to pick up replacement parts for them should they crap out. I would go with a Dell XPS if you have the cash to spend for it.

What is the best gaming laptop with the best settings possible that I could get with a max budget of $200?

Kyle

I want a gaming laptop with windows 7 that has the best settings possible with a max budget of $200. It will need to run games like skyrim, call of duty, battlefield, or any role playing game (RPGs,MMORPGs) It also needs to run Cain and Abel. I will use the laptop a lot so it would need to be durable. I don't mind the screen size but I would prefer it to be 15 inches or higher (it's not a big deal if it's not) If anyone knows any laptops please give me a link or the name of the laptop and a description of it. If anyone could get back to me asap, I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

Answer
with 200$ you can get second hand laptops and play browser based games
