Probably not, guessing it'll depend on your specs?

I was warned off playing The Sims 2 and 3 on a netbook by a Sims forum, apparently it's that intensive it can cause damage to netbooks. Don't know how much truth is in it but my netbook is an Atom N455 with GMA X3100 GPU.

You could play something like Mobil 1 Rally Championship on a netbook (from 1998, brilliant game that)

It really depends on the machine and the game, there is some high-spec netbooks which can run games but bottom-middle of the range ones can struggle sometimes running demanding and graphics-intensive games.

Hardware will generally shutdown before any damage is done.

The drive will work, the likelihood of your network being specced to support the Sims however is very slim. Originally Posted by Slowpoke

However a better drive fix would be to download the disc image, install via that, and then use a no-cd crack.Chippiewill.
