@Emoreader316 Have you tested with no mods or custom content at all? I realize you may not want to play like that, but it would be useful to know whether this helped. Your dxdiag lists a couple of Origin crashes and a bunch of Sims 4 errors that could be related to the graphics driver, but it's a lot easier to test with no mods or cc than to clean uninstall and reinstall the driver, plus the latter is not something you want to do just for fun.
If removing the mods and cc doesn't help, please move the entire Sims 4 folder to the desktop and try again. The game will create a new Sims 4 folder with no content the next time it loads. If that works, you can try moving some content from the old Sims 4 folder to the new one.
If the game still won't load properly with a clean folder in place, before you've added anything to it, the next step is to address the Origin errors. Clean Origin's cache and uninstall it "the hard way":

Reinstall using the full installer (direct download link):

Run the installer as an admin: right-click on the download and select "Run as administrator." Restart before trying to play.
Hi there, I’m having the same issue with Sims as well. Ever since I got the new Windows Update on my laptop, Sims just gets stuck frozen on the loading page everytime I click on it. I’ve cleared cache, moved my mods and content to desktop, repaired the app, uninstalled and reinstalled EA, made sure my laptop drivers are up to date, and tried to run a dxdiag file on Sims, but it wouldn’t save or do anything. I don’t know what else to do and if you could help me, that would be greatly appreciated.
