I've tried that as well but it's giving me the same drivers I've had in my PC since I had to redo my operating system just last year. Had a bug eating my OS.

That's weird. Could you try updating through device manager. 

If you don't know how, here you have a link:

Also check if there are any issues with the devices and if you have any yellow marks in device manager.

Believe it or not, I've tried that as well. I wouldn't have come on this site requesting aid had I not tried everything known aside from uninstalling and reinstalling it.

Have you tried disabling that 9400 chip ? Maybe the game is trying to use that one and that doesn't sound very strong.

 

It doesn't even show in your DxDiag, just that Nvidia system Info you posted

Alright... I have even taken the measure of uninstalling and reinstalling the whole entire game minus the City Living part. It's gotta be the game. I even uninstalled and reinstalled my graphics cards. I'm really, really, REALLY about done with this game...

I would just try get a refund for city living then.

 

The more expansions you add, the more load is on your computer. Since yours is a bit borderline, it could be that it was just too much

 

For refunds, please contact a game advisor
