Try resetting all your Sims in your town with the cheat resetsim *.
You might have a stuck Sim somewhere

EDIT: Just saw that you also posted in that thread. Here's my answer in the other thread:
have you tried the resetting ? When you install a new EP/SP or a patch, the game automatically resets all Sims and sometimes they get stuck. So chances that you have stuck Sims after installing an EP/SP/Patch are quite high.
If that doens't work, does the same happen in every savegame or only certain ones ?
Please try to keep to one thread with your answers (here). It's easier to keep track

i actually only had the game for a few days prior to the DLC (which i downloaded yesterday) so i had one saved game and i deleted that once i installed the expansions...so i started a game fresh, it was playable to begin with...except for cars were missing but i could see my sims when they were driving? so i decided to delete that game and start another new one...now its unplayable, its either choppy or after a few minutes it freezes for some seconds.....
any ideas? perhaps you could help me with the graphics settings? they are all on default right now...? im not sure what to tweak in order to have a playable game...
Could you post your RAM and processor DxDiag as well.
Also check for new graphic drivers, yours are rather old.
- Approved
everything from dxdiag will be in my next post, i saved it to a document so ill copy & paste, could you tell me how to download the drivers you speak about??
also sims 3 without the expansions works perfectly, if that means anything to you?
