game crashes every 20-30 minutes
I am an avid sims 4 player, but recently i haven't been playing as much as my game keeps crashing. I do play with mods (mc command center, UI cheats, preschool mod, more columns in CAS) and have cc hairs, clothes, skin, makeup, and other accessories.
I have updated my drivers, repaired EA app, removed my mods folder, even cleared my entire cc collection to see what the issue is. i've noticed it when i triple speed, when i move the sims 3 camera, when i'm not doing gameplay and just placing buildings.
I'm not sure what i'm doing wrong, what i should do. i have also tried saving a previous save file that was beloved to me but the crashes were still occurring when i renamed a new file the save one.
I've basically restarted so many times i'm just not sure what to do next.

morganxomg If you'd rather do a clean uninstall and reinstall of the graphics driver, that's perfectly reasonable. Here's how to do it:
You can use the newest driver release:

If this doesn't help though, I'd change the BIOS setting and see what happens. It's not a permanent change, so there's no reason not to at least find out whether it helps. Other games generally don't have this issue, at least as far as I've seen; it's unclear why Sims 4 is still affected some of the time. But it definitely is in that changing the CPU Turbo Boost setting has helped a number of players.
