Sims is incredibly slow. is there any way i can fix it WITHOUT having to by RAM or whatever its called? because i don't have the money and also, it just seems kind of annoying. i payed for the game, so it should work without me having to buy extra stuff!
thanks!

Push and hold the Windows key on keyboard. This is the one with the Microsft windows logo on it.
While holding Win key down click on the Pause\Break key

This should open the System properties window
On this window it will show
