So update; no need to mess with Drivers. I fixed it, BUT it does require you to have a copy of the game from the Origin era. (Sorry, Steam version probably won't help here!)

What I did then:
Install old version.
Click play so it links to EA App, don't mind the errors it tosses you on that launcher. Close launcher.
Go to EA App, Sims 3. Now pick Repair.

For me that worked, as I clicked Play through EA App and it brought up the Launcher without the error. I was able to play again!

nfsrpfan I need the entire dxdiag, saved as a text file. The only real identifiers are the machine name and ID near the top. Nothing else is personal, which is why we're allowed to ask for dxdiags on this forum (as opposed to, for example, an msinfo report, which would in fact be too sensitive to post in public). The info you've provided isn't nearly enough for me to start to look for problems.

Sorry for late response, life happens. Game still used to work though without much trouble.

Also coincidentally my PC hit a system error shortly after anyways so been dealing with that stuff as well.
