Yes, I can see my cursor but it doesn't move. It freezes immediately when the loading screen starts. Then it reaches the home page where you can see all the exapansion packs and whatnot. The animations there work perfectly. I completely removed all Mods and restarted my game.
I don't have any other mouse. I'm not sure what mouse trails are. I can't move to open main menu. The only way for me to exit is to restart my computer

Could you post your Computer's DxDiag?
To gather a DxDiag on your computer, please follow the steps here: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/pc/how-to-gather-dxdiag-information/
You can attach the txt file to your post directly. Hopefully this helps 🙂
- crinrict6 years agoHero+@BombiIRS010 How do you have your mouse plugged in ? An USB ?
Your graphics drivers are a bit dated. Could you try updating those ? @crinrict I'm currently using my trackpad on my laptop. I had a USB mouse but it died months ago. Haven't used it since then. I'll try updating my drivers..I'm not entirely sure how to do that correctly...
Edit: Nevermind, I found some instructions 🙂
Edit #2: I tried to update but Windows says that it's already up to date. I'm going to try uninstalling it and resetting my PC to see if it makes a difference. If not, I'm not really sure what to do afterwards.
Edit #3: Didn't work...

- crinrict6 years agoHero+@BombiIRS010 What didn't work ? Did you manage to update the drivers but still same issue or did updating not work ?
Did it work with the trackpad before or did it basically stop working when you switched from mouse to trackpad ? - @crinrict I tried restarting the drivers when Windows said that it was all updated. I'm currently updating the drivers (at least I hope). Hopefully this works
I tried updating the drives. This is my DxDiag report. It's still freezing when I launch the sims.
- @crinrict I finally got it to work. For anyone experience the same problem, you may have to clear your cache. I followed these instructions and my mouse stopped freezing --> https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/faq/clear-cache-to-fix-problems-with-your-games/
Thank you so much Crin for being patient and helping me!
