sims 3 issues
 

didnt know if this should be put in games or computer issues .

But heres the problem . When this game came out I purchased it from direct2drive and have downloaded it from time to time . Tonight I got a hankering to play it so I downloaded it . once done it updated itself played it just fine for about 20 mins . then my computer just went wacko . every time i hit escape start menu would pop up . Iwould go on the internet and when I tryed to type a W internet explorer would close .So I did the f8 trick of last know good config. everything went back to normal . so I gave the game another shot and started playing it again . after about 20 mins my screen went out but the game was still running . I could hear sound . So I manually shut off my system it would act like it was starting up then almost like a squeal sound and nothing . no graphics nothing . So I turned it off and unplugged it pressed the power button for 10 secs. Plugged power back in and everything came back up like nothing happened . What im getting at here is does anyone know of this happening before or why it may be happening to me ? thanks guys sorry for the long explantion . Also mods move this if it is in the wrong category. thanks

The problem is that you're playing The Sims 3.

haha . real solutions please

Sounds horrible. I think your computer is possesed or virus infected. That's about the level of help I can give from the description, maybe you're not smart enough to own a PC?
