    @taijahjordan  Please move the entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents\Electronic Arts and onto your desktop.  When you launch the game, a clean folder will spawn with no content.  (Your saves and other content will be added to the folder you've moved but temporarily not read by the game.)  Don't add anything to the new folder yet; just see whether you can get far enough to start a new save and load into the household.  If that works, please save, quit, restart your computer, and make sure you can still load the household.

    If you get another crash, please run a dxdiag and attach it to a post.

    @taijahjordan  Okay, so the game works when you've let it create a new user folder and added back none of your content.  That means the problem is your content, or at least some of it.  Please make another new Sims 4 folder, and this time, add your saves, mods, etc. back slowly rather than all at once.  When the game stops working, you'll know that at least one of the files you just added is a problem, and you can split the last batch of files and retest until you figure out which one.
