@puzzlezaddict I started a fresh game in a fresh folder like you suggested. I didn't have any crashes even with all my expansions installed. I was playing full screen at 60 fps. The cheat showed that the fps cap is working. Unfortunately, when I restored my saves, my game crashed again. No mods.
Do I need to somehow transfer my sims over to a fresh save and start anew?
Edit: Scratch that. The game is still crashing with all packs and in fullscreen even with a new folder.
@iliekponiez The very first thing you need to do is check the temps on the cpu and gpu. I just read some posts about heat problems with the HP Omen. This is not a new problem for HP Omen laptops. MSI afterburner will tell you these temps. A couple of posts said their cpu was running at 95c. I think the cpu probably starts throttling at 90c and at 100c you may damage the cpu. Once you damage the cpu HP will not warranty your laptop and the cost of repair will exceed to value of the laptop. Personal experience. The cooling system in laptops is complicated and to clean them the laptops normally have to be opened up. If you have pets (cats ot dogs) or a dusty house the cooling fan(s) may not be turning at the right speed anymore. There are settings that may help or laptop fans that may help. Make sure the vents are not blocked. Once your cpu reaches 90c the fan(s) should be making more noise and you may see a noticeable decrease in performance. hth
