I had a beeping sound yesterday before my game crashed, froze first then I had to turn of my comp because my game wouldn't shut down. No beeping today. Also I don't have anything going on in the background either.
Were you not able to use CTL ALT DEL to open Task Manager to close Sims 4 from there? If you aren't already, switch Sims 4 to run in windowed fullscreen mode in the graphics settings. That way you'll be able to ALT TAB out in all but the worst of crashes that freeze Windows too. Fullscreen programs normally ALT TAB fine, but freezing can make them unresponsive to it, windowed fullscreen usually bypasses that). Also, on some systems and with some games windowed fullscreen is more stable
EDIT: also -nosound definitely helps, instead of 30 minute before crashing it went 2 hours. But I think there are other things involved in the crashes.
