@puzzlezaddict I used Nvidia's global settings to limit my fps to 60, but it's still crashing. Here's the DxDiag file. Thank you for your help!
@iliekponiez The crashes in your dxdiag point to a few possible issues, so please try these steps, one at a time and in order, and let me know whether any of them help.
First, most of the Sims 3 crashes cite a component of DirectX 9 as the faulting module, so please manually reinstall DX9. There's no need to uninstall anything; just run the installer over the top, as described here:

If that doesn't help, uninstall all Razer software: Synapse, Cortex, Game Manager Service, whatever you have. Whatever issue caused the crash of Game Manager Service might be resolved upon reinstalling, but to keep things simple, please don't reinstall until Sims 3 is running properly again.
If that doesn't help either, disable the Omen Gaming Hub in the Task Manager, including killing any related services you find in the background processes list. Omen Gaming Hub crashed at least once too, and it could easily interfere with Sims 3.
If none of this makes a difference, please find the driver download page for your laptop so I can compare your installed drivers with HP's offerings. Go here:

Enter your laptop's serial number, choose the OS (just Windows 10 is fine) if prompted, and you'll land on the driver download page for your laptop. Please link it here. The page doesn't contain any information about your own computer, just the overall model.
