Still getting crashes and strange audio bug

I was playing for a while and went to magic town and the music that plays when your sim passes out kept playing. over, and over even though my sim had full energy. Then when i got back home the game crashed to desktop with no error.

  • icemanxman8  Your dxdiag lists a few errors from the graphics driver, which may or may not be related to Sims 1 but mean the driver should be replaced.  Please do a clean uninstall and reinstall, as described here:

    If you get another crash like this, please look for new errors in the Reliability Monitor.  Hit Windows key-R and enter "perfmon /rel" without quotes, and you'll see a chart of errors and updates with a column for each day.  Today is on the right.

    Look for an error that happened at exactly the time of your most recent Sims 1 crash.  If you find one, double-click it to see more details, then copy that info and paste it into a reply here.  If you don't see a new error, check back in an hour or so—the Reliability Monitor doesn't always update right away.
