@ Lisbeth, if the problem lies on your graphic card you could considering of replacing it. Of course, if your motherboard supports newer cards.

I put a new graphics card in my computer shortly after I first bought Sims 3 and it made a world of difference.  It stopped the lagging and crashing I was experiencing and the beauty of the game was awesome!

I did the same thing and I agree 100%.

I've ordered a whole new system myself! Not replacing something, but starting over entirely! A huge machine that I will connect with my LCD tv. Then I will have a total new experience with Ambitions. :D
It's expensive, true, but then I will have no lagging (and hopefully crashing) with The Sims 3 anymore. :D

I play on my less than a year old laptop and it's great. Just wondering though. Does anyone know if there is a big difference between 32 bit and 64 bit? My laptop will upgrade to 64.

I don't think you'd really see an improvement moving up to 64. 64-bit is generally more memory-intensive and hasn't really proven to bring faster speeds for most consumer games and apps just yet. Someday, every program will be written in only 64-bit and we'll all do best to move up. If you don't already have a 64-bit OS I wouldn't consider upgrading to one.

You may see a very very small increase in speed but I do not recommend it...

I love ambitions, and have all the packs installed. I can play the game fine, but the launcher is acting weird. Every time I start it, it says "THERE WAS AN ERROR DURING START-UP. PLEASE SEE LOG FOR MORE DETAILS" What do I do? ???

I'm sorry for the delay in answering, Staraptor.  A belated welcome to the forum!  Please post your question on the Technical Board to get some help.  This thread is only for discussions of first impressions of Ambitions.  I think you'll get more help that way.  :)

There was a thread to Start the game without opening the Launcher HERE But if you want to download and upload content from your game or to it then you would be better looking where Pam said to HERE

Not that I know of and I highly highly doubt it. Where did you hear that?

I doubt it, I got Ambitions for a Xmas present and I still see it on store shelves. Why on earth would they recall it anyway?!  :o
