I tranfered my sims game from my laptop to my new desktop. For some reason my game keeps crashing after playing the game for a while (maybe around 30 minutes?), I have a very powerful PC so I'm not s...

I would like to note, I have the alder lake patch mod because without it my game would not launch. Could that be a possible cause? It was the only thing changed from the original files transferred from my laptop.
@MisterSidternay Did you transfer the game's program files from the old laptop? If so, it would be best to repair them. For a Steam install, the option is called "Verify integrity of the game files" and is somewhere under Properties. For a disc install, you'd need to run the EA-provided Super Patch:

Either one would undo the effects of the Alder Lake patch, but the patch itself shouldn't be an issue because it only affects the game in the first few seconds of loading.
Aside from that, my original questions still stand.
Thank you for these responses I appreciate it. So I took the mods out instead of nrass and other ones I needed because it would break the game if I removed it. The game actually crashed not long after it loaded, I went into map view and it crashed. That is something I did notice, all the random crashes happened when the camera was moving (going into map view or switching to a different sim). I was watching the rap usage, when the game launched it was at around 2 gb of ram and crept up as I played until it crashed. Also my save is in Hidden Springs.
@MisterSidternay How much RAM was the game using the last time you looked before it crashed? 2 GB is fine, and 3.0 GB should be fine, but 3.5 is the beginning of the danger zone.
Separately, what other mods are you using that you can't remove?
It never reached 3 gb, max I saw was like 2.5. The other mod that can't be removed is kinky world.
