Sims 3 doesn't recognize my new graphics card Nvidia GeForce 920MX

[Noisette]

I got a new computer with a graphics card to be able to play sims 3 without lag. The graphics card I'm using is a nvidia GeForce 920MX but when I go to documents->ea games->sims 3->DeviceConfig it says "[0 found, 0 matched]" which means the game is unable to recognize the card. What do I do to make it recognize? I really wanna be able to play sims 3 without lag and bad graphics help!?

Try the attached file. The zipped file has both graphicscards.sgr and graphicsrules.sgr these files will help the game recognize the card.

The GTX920MX is rated for medium settings.

----
The files in the zipped file attached should work. Download and unzip. You can overwrite the current .sgr files with these. - Delete or overwrite the old graphic files with the new ones.

1. Take the zipped file from the post and copy to
C:\Games\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Base Game\Game\Bin

2. Unzip it and overwrite what's there, it's fine this is to help get the game to recognize the graphics card.

3. You may need to load the game to main menu and exit to make the Config.log file be aware of the change.

4. The Config.log file should be able to say "Found: 1, Matched: 1" After this, the game should recognize the game.

Thank you for the fast quick respons. Ok I'll definitely try this when I get home in a few hours! So I just replace the current graphic rules and graphic cards files in the sims 3 folder with these new ones?

Yes, just overwrite the old graphics files with the new ones from the zipped folder and you should be good to go.
