    my child is not leaving to school

    my teenage children in some of my houses will not go to school. the bus will come and wait for them for ever and their siblings will go but they will just stay home an dthe school wll notcall or anything. i don't know if this is just a glitch or if it is a full out problem because i find it very fun when there is no sim in the house and if the teenager stays home all the time what is the fun in watching the maid do dumb stuff. well can some1 please help me tell me what to do if it is a problem because i download a lot of stuff or if i just need to uninstall and install my game again which i wold hate to do 4 the 3rd time because for some reason this always happens. and also does any1 know where i can find a good and cheap graphics card because every graphics card i have been searching for is over 100 buks and i know very well that my mother will not buy that for me i am only twelve so i cannot afford it. please somebody help me.:confused: the lowest price i have found is 9.90 and it is a Thermaltake:ATT364 GeForce 4 and i don't want to order it and it will not be good so tell me if that 1 is good.

    oh yea and my sister whos computer i play m game on has a NvD comething with those leters GeForce 4 and it does not do the special events camera how do i fix that do i need to upgrade it...not anything more because i will not buy her a new card when i need 1 for myself

    (a) You'll need to tell us if
    • you have free will on or off
    • if you give orders to go to school by clciking on the bus and the teens still do not go
    • or if the option to order them to go to school is simply not available.
    (b) As for graphics cards there's no such thing as cheap. If you pay peanuts you get monkeys. The $9.90 graphic card you mention wouldn't be worth the effort of installing. Find out how much money you have available to spend (and if you think you are capable of installing the card yourself ... or have someone to do it for you) and we can maybe point out a few likely products that might do some good. You would also need to post a complete system analysis of your present PC by running dxdiag (Start >> Run >> type in dxdiag and hit Enter) and giving us as much info as possible but especially the information on the System and Display tabs.

    Remember TANSTAAFL (There Ain't No Such Thing As A Free Lunch) ;)
