What OS are you using?
Is your antivirus running? Bizarre things happen when antivirus software quarantines game files it doesn't recognize.

Ugly is in the heart of the beholder.
(My simblr isSim Media Res . Widespot,Widespot RFD: The Subhood, and Land Grant University are all available here. In case you care.)

I'm using Windows 7 Pro x86 and my antivirus is Malwaredbytes free, I checked the Quarantine and is empty. What else it could be?

Try adding the file locations of your Sims game install and your userdata to the exclusions lists.

I am thinking its to do with your Screen Resolution and size/shape vs the game resolution settings. What happens as you try different resolutions in game?

Also please don't upload picture files, post them so we can view them in your post.

That's a screen ratio of 1.6 - you can use any setting with the same ratio.

I no longer come over to MTS very often but if you would like to ask me a question then you can find me on tumblr or my own site tflc. TFLC has an archive of all my CC downloads.
I'm here on tumblr and my site, tflc

Problem solved I got an new laptop. It's an Vaio is from Vista era but runs Sims 2 very nice since Sims 2 game from XP era, it also runs Sims 3 pretty well. The only pet peeve I have is that sometimes the sounds stops and records pretty slow. But for it's price ain't complaining
