I have the same problem. I tried swapping ram and GPU from my other PC and i even replaced the Motherboard, tried new windows and it still randomly crashes Mostly on the opening screen.
@mtessh Please post a new dxdiag, and look for a new error in the Reliability Monitor that corresponds to your most recent attempt to play Sims 4.
@lady_absentia Since this thread is specific to the original poster, please create your own thread describing your issue. Include the model numbers or SKUs of the components you've replaced, for example the RAM has its model number printed on the side of each module. Please post a dxdiag as well.

It's important to have no internet connection at all. If that doesn't help, please post the Reliability Monitor from the newest crash, as you've done before.
I've asked for a second opinion on your issue in case I'm missing something.
@puzzlezaddict it only lasted about an hour, unfortunately.

Bucket ID: eb179d2a9de903cd506d48c011e64cbf (1183682266839534783)I wanted to ask if there was anything to do to make the game process smoother. It is very 'frame by frame" when I play. And it's not a space problem because I have over 800gb free on the drive I'm using. I also have all the graphic settings to low
@mtessh One of the problems here, perhaps the main one, is that your laptop's hardware can't really keep up with the demands of Sims 4. Adding more RAM might help, but I'm not sure how much—the graphics chip is also going to limit how well Sims 4 runs. If you do want to try though, another 8 GB would cost about $20, for example here are a couple options:

If you want me to look for new errors that might not have been present previously and that might explain why performance is worse now, feel free to post a new dxdiag.
