Before the virus got on my computer i used to play the sims 2 double deluxe. After I got the virus removed the sims wouldn't play so i went to canyourunit.com and it said that the video card on my computer is too low. I've called different stores like Walmart and RadioShack and they don't sell video cards so i was wondering if anybody knew how to repair a video card. Any information will help in one way or another. I have some kind of Dell computer by the way.|||A virus did NOT mess up your video card. Download the driver from the video card mfgs website and install it.|||I think your video driver got corrupted by the virus. There is no way the virus can do damage to the video card.
If the driver update did not fix the problem, then repair your OS for there is something wrong with a dll or system files. There are several web sites telling you how to repair your system.
Since you did list your OS, I would gave you a hint on how to repair.|||Virus can't harm your video card, no way.
Your video card could not support the Sim 2. You said about your computer "Dell" only !! You have a 4x graphic card, I suppose. If so, upgrade your PC by get a new 8x graphic card. Geforce 7600GS 256Mb or a card like this.|||cover it in tinfoil in put it in the oven for 500F. this process is called reflowing and it will fix anything electronic. don't be worried if it starts to smoke, that is bad smoke, and you want it out of the electronic piece.|||Viruses don't affect your video card no matter what. Viruses only edit your system files. Buy a new card at http://www.NewEgg.com|||A virus didn't mess up your Video Card itself. Just Windows.
Try reinstalling Windows.
