Sims 4 Constantly Crashes Computers!

I've played Sims for decades now.  I even got my current desktop PC specifically to play the game.  The game, all the expansion packs, stuff packs etc. has been a giant waste of money because there is zero customer service, nor any fixing of problems.

The game will make my computer have a solid color on the screen (there have been all colors), and then crash the whole computer.

Most aggravating part is that if there are any events taking place, the computer wont crash until after all weekly tasks have been completed.  The solid screens start again after the weekly completion.  So I KNOW EA Games could make the game play solid if they wanted to.

What's the point of playing a game, when it isn't stable to begin with?

I've played since Sims 2, and wish I could go back to that because at least there was an ability to play and didn't crash 2 seconds into play.

  • How old of a PC and was it made specifically for gaming? My gaming laptop is very powerful and can handle the game just fine. My desktop, which is almost 8 years old also can handle the game, but it was built by my spouse with gaming in mind. From your description here, it sounds like you are trying to play a resource heavy game on a computer that was never meant for gaming.
