Stegerain The crashes in your dxdiag look like what happens sometimes on high-end Intel CPUs that the motherboard may overclock by default. This is sometimes solved with a BIOS update, so look for an update for your board. I can't see which one you have from the dxdiag, but you can find the model printed on the board itself, among other places, and look for the Asus support page.

You didn't ask about Sims 3, but your newer CPU is the issue there. Here are some workarounds:

I honestly downloaded 3 as like a last resort if I needed to switch games haha. I’m going to update BIOS. I honestly didn’t think that was going to be the issue. I did update it. Is removing a turbo boost necessary?
Going back to an issue I had when I first tried a fresh save. The game ended up freezing eventually.
