Could you try if the 32 bit version of the game runs: http://sims4.crinrict.com/en/2015/11/64-bit-is-coming-to-windows-pc/
You only have 4 GB of RAM so there's no advantages to play on 64 bit.
- It didn't work 😳 feeling a bit hopeless at this point

Are you trying to play in windowed or full screen mode ?
Did the game ever work for you ?
- Yes the game worked before the latest update. As soon as it updated I went to play and it wasn't working. But I've tried both windowed and fulls creek but neither work. It's just the picture thats not showing. I can hear it all just fine.

Could you check if you have any critical events for ts4.exe or ts4_64.exe: http://sims4.crinrict.com/en/2014/09/critical-events/
Also do you have any error logs in the documents folder ?

Hi @michurii,
did you ever get this solved ?
If not, please try these suggestions: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4/INFO-REQUEST-Black-Screen-on-Startup/td-p/5068904/jump-to/first-unread-message
I have tried every single one of those.
My spore game doesn't work either so I'm thinking maybe it's my computer????
But it's only for the games. I can hear then perfect just can't see the picture and it's only happened after this last update. Also, I was moving my mouse around and it seems the buttons are all still there because my mouse changed over where the play button normally is. Don't know if that helps at all but this is pretty frustrating! I even tried the Sims black screen fix video on youtube but my game starts up with a black screen, it doesn't work and then suddenly turn to black screen. I currently have an ongoing case with a specialist or something, but so far nothing has worked.
I've attached my DxDiag (more recent i believe)

And you're 100% sure that the game is running on the AMD card ? I don't really know how to do it with AMD.
Also did the CAW Demo work at all ?
I figured it out, I found a stray save file in my documents(it wasn't in a sims folder), deleted it, and my game works now!
I can't believe I didn't notice it until now. -____-
Thanks so much for your help!!! :D

In what folder was the file exactly ?
That sound very weird.
I'm very happy that you can play again.
- In my documents! Like it didn't reach the ea folder it is pretty weird because the only thing I've ever done with my save files is delete them!

Really weird then
But if it works, all good.
