The Sims 4 CAS Demo HELP!

★ Novice

I recently downloaded the Sims 4 Create A Sim Demo from Origin.

 

It installs fine BUT when I opened the game the instruction video would come on THEN a BLANK BLACK SCREEN would pop up and the game would not play or show anything for that matter.  

 

Some other people have had this trouble too and I really want a way to resolve it because I was looking forward to playing the game but now I am utterly DISAPPOINTED IN EA!

 

 

PLEASE HELP!

You're DxDiag are pretty low. Not sure if your graphic chip can take it. ATM your on minimum specs so it kinda should run if they say it can but I doubt you'll be happy in the long run. Once they add extra stuff, you'll run into more issues.

 

I would check on the Intel Page if there are newer drivers.

@crinrict      There is no Llama.  Just a blank black screen after the introduction video.  The mouse works but that's all.
