Okay...so I checked to see if my system was able to run the program...AFTER THE PATCH ... and it says everything except the CPU driver is up to date...so I updated the driver yesterday ... it still says the driver is out of date. So, why could I run the game with no problems BEFORE the patch and now suddenly my system is no longer able to run the game?
Were the specifications changed in the new patch, and what was the reason for this? Was it to accommodate Island Living? If so, what are the players who don't want/have Island living supposed to do when they don't have large wads of cash to go out and get a new cpu or completely new computer?
I sound annoyed, because I am.
Thank you.

Community ManagerHi @jeswainston65
Thanks for posting. I mentioned above that the July 16th patch hasn't changed the system requirement:

The minimum requirements have not changed since the Patch on July 16th and you can find them listed under the heading "System Requirements" in The Sims 4 on Origin and under each expansion pack too.
It's difficult to discern what is happening for you without more information. Could you pop up a DxDiag an expand a bit more about how it started for you and what other steps you have taken so far please?
It started happening right after the patch update....here is the updated dx diag file

Your graphics drivers for your card AMD Radeon HD 7400G are quite old. Look for the latest drivers for this card

There is an option that update went wrong. Try to fix the game in Origin
Origin/Library -right-click on TS4 - option "repair game"
To eliminate the possibility that this issue is caused by an error in your current game folder try doing a factory reset as is described here

In addition, you have a problem with another game Redemption Cemetery: Dead Park. Has this problem started parallel to update the Sims?There were reports of extremely low FPS caused by the Internet. This FPS was so low - below 10 frames per second that the game was almost impossible. Maybe try completely turn off the Internet when you are in the game.
I don't work for EAMy Game is lagging as well since the patch...
I already created a new Sims 4 Folder so there are no mods involved.I tested my performance in a new savegame and my whole gameplay experience feels like playing online with a horrible ping. My Sims would stop moving for a moment and moving my the camera, zooming in or out is not as smooth as it used to be before the update. Having youtube running while playing was also never an issue before. Not it lags even more with music or videos running.
Repairing the game didn't help.
I included my DxDiag as well.
