@SmurfyBlue25 

Did you try resetting your user files completely by renaming the folder in documents and let it create a new one and did you get rid of the user files when you reinstalled ? Did you clean out the registery when you reinstalled ?

Really don't see why you have problems, should run very smooth (unless you play Islo Paradiso). I do assume you tried Sunset Valley when you only had base installed, right ? Did you have any Store content installed at the time or really just plain Sunset Valley without enything else and with a fresh user folder (just makeing sure and trying to get all factors sorted).

Also did the stutter start right after you started playing or was it ok for a while ?

Could you maybe post a video of the lags you're seeing ?

@all in this thread (FYI): I'm having troubles following everyone so I'm going to stick to helping the OP of this thread. You both have your own thread and I'll gladly help there but every case is different. Desktops are different from laptops and it depends on the programs you have installed etc.

You can of course continue the discussion but I'm not reading the posts. Just the OP one cause with all the other threads I'm helping in, that's all I can handle.

@pauljazz24. This is my old computer that got ruined by the 8.1 update. I played Island Paradise on med setting, FPS never went over 40, no overheating issues, played for about 2 months before my save files got bigger and issues started. I have to say this cheaper lap top did ok considering how messed up the game is

      did your pc come with windows 8 and you switched to 8.1? It is possible that is your problem. Some people have issue with video problems changing form 8 to 8.1. I will not let my ASUS change to 8.1. --My HP got all messed up from 8 to 8.1. Why I went out to relpace my HP with a windows 8. As messed up as this game is, it played better on 8. Windows 8 from my observation is more stable than 8.1 on gaming
