Dedopeligroso  Most of the crashes in your dxdiag are timeouts of the graphics driver, so please do a clean uninstall and reinstall of the driver, as described here:

Your dxdiag does list one Sims 4 crash that looks like the ones related to overclocked processors, so if reinstalling the driver doesn't help, try disabling CPU Turbo Boost, or whatever Asus calls it that's slightly different.  It'll have Turbo in the name and be somewhere under Advanced BIOS settings.

Thank you very much! Actually the Bios update or the new video card driver solved my problem, or both, but I can play for hours now without crashes. I still have crashed like once or twice but game is playable now.
