How to get The Sims 3 to work on the Lenovo U530 laptop?

From my understanding, I have a normal built in Intel graphics card in my laptop. In addition to that I also have the Nvidia GeForce graphics card built in my laptop as well.
I was told by Geek Squad that the game is not updated enough to work on my laptop with my Nvidia card.
HOW CAN I GET THE SIMS 3 TO WORK DESPITE A THIS?!
What settings do I need to change, ect?
