@puzzlezaddict I downloaded the new drivers, though that didn't help too much. However, the MCCC route did the trick. I was able to play my most recent household with little to no interruptions so far. Though, I can't say the same for my first save file. I wasn't able to run the game long enough to do it. So much of my PC's memory was eaten up that it caused my system to crash. And when I was able to look at the files again, the size had grown from about 10k KB to 100k KB.

@Mikone12 Can you check with MCCC or SimsInfo how many Father Winters you have in your game ? Instructions should be in that post puzzlez linked above.

With 16 GB of RAM, you can delete about 7000 of them before the game crashes. If you have more, the only option is to wait if EA comes up with a better solution to solve this or revert to a backup

You mention though that your save goes from 10 k to about 100k. Do you have a save that's only 10k still ?
