Your DxDiag does not show ANY information about your display card so I would run a hardware check and reinstall graphics drivers.

Having the same problem with the video card.

 

Can't run The Sims 4 with the video card in this system. Please check that the video card meets the minimum specifications and that the latest video drivers are installed.

Purchased game the day it came out.  It has been running fine until yesterday, 01/18/2015.  I updated the driver on my video card just before trying to play the game.  Rolled back the driver to the previous version and the game ran fine last night. 

 

Now today I am getting the error message again.  There is something wrong here and it's not my PC.

Hey been looking at posts on this forum for past two hours and I have been on Intel's website updating my drivers but nothing seems to work. I also have been on the AMD website and it says I do not meet system requirements at present but if i update my drivers I will have. I have done this so many times and nothing is helping.

 

Here is a link to my DXDiag https://www.dropbox.com/s/kcrlx0pvhi6jjeb/DxDiag.txt?dl=0 

 

Can you help ?

I don't see anything about a AMD card in your DxDiag. Are you sure you have one ? The Chip you have in there is not supported.

Hello,

 

I've been messing around with this for the whole day, but nothing seems to help. I've updated EVERYTHING I could, but still, I get the same video card error.

So please, take a look at my dxdiag http://pastebin.com/5gATeszT

Maybe you'll see what could be wrong.

 

Thank you.

 

P.S My computer meets the minimal requirements (except for the processor - though it never was an obstacle to play games)

Are there no new drivers for your card ?

 

Also you're running a bit low on disc space.

OK, I got the fix. It was UNEXPECTED. I uninstalled the latest drivers, and got the oldest ones. Sounds a bit crazy, but it worked just fine. The only problem is that some other applications are crashing now.

 

Anyways, thanks!
