[READ FIRST - POST HERE] Windows 10 Help Thread

What drivers are you using? I know from experience the 355.82 nVidia drivers do exactly what you are describing on multiple games. The 355.90 work better, Im not sure if they are better than the 355.60 ones so try both.

The following doesnt apply to your issue but another in thread:

With the 8016 error I mentioned above I stand corrected, I set up a dual boot to my old Windows 8.1 drive (OEM so thought this wouldnt work but it did) and ran the game, had the same problem. At this point I shift my focus from Win10 to Skylake.

So I went and checked my BIOS version and there was an update, nothing specific to this issue but I figured Id try it.

This did resolve the issue and I have been able to load into Sims3 fully patched (without EP's Ill try them later) where I couldnt before. So where Gigabyte specifically identified their update fixed this issue Asus did not.

For Asus users you need to go to http://support.asus.com/download/options.aspx?SLanguage=en and put the model of motherboard ie Maximus VIII ranger, select the OS and then expand BIOS. Mine for the above mention board were at 0401 an update to 0801 is there, download it and save it to a USB drive. You then reboot, go into BIOS and use the EZ updater to update the BIOS using the file you just downloaded to USB. When it starts WAIT, do not do anything until you boot into Windows, it may look like your PC is done but it switches off and on a few times when its done it booted up to windows for me (had to restart and re-apply certain BIOS settings). 

Gigabyte have a similar update available http://www.gigabyte.com/support-downloads/download-center.aspx and choose your motherboard etc like the above example. I dont know how their BIOS update works but Im sure theres instruction on their site.
