Frozen Sim whilst time goes on

jadeneclegg  Do you still need help?  If so, when you tested the new saves, did you use your existing sims or a house you'd built or downloaded from the Gallery?  The most thorough test is to use fresh sims on a default EA-made lot, so please try that if you haven't already.

If that doesn't or didn't help, please provide a dxdiag.  Click Windows key-R, enter dxdiag in the run box, wait for the scan to finish, click "Save all information," and save the file to your desktop.  From there, you can attach it to a reply using the paper clip (Attachment) icon included with the other formatting buttons.
