The bluescreen errors are caused by me playing Sims 4, hence why I am here. I recently downloaded Cats and Dogs and that is when the BSOD's began.
Thanks for taking the time to help me... if there is any help possible, other than restoring to a strict Macbook.
The sims 4 may trigger it but is not the cause. Please do as suggested.

I am using bootcamp for a lot of work functions as they do not support Mac OS...
jpkarlsen.... I have not had a single BSOD until installing the newest version of Sims 4. Every time I run it, it crashes in a BSOD. I have ensured Window's and my drivers are up to date, and even tried completely re-installing the Sims and "reparing" the game twice now. I still have the BSOD approximately 10-15 mins into a run of the game, and this is the ONLY function that causes the BSOD.

But maybe Sims would run without BSOD if you used the native Mac version ? You don't have to pay for it again.

The Sims 4 Cats & Dogs have higher demands. That may have triggered it.
Examining the bluescreen errors should help tell you what goes wrong.

The issue is most likely the Apple drivers for Windows. Have you run the Apple Software Update for Windows to see if you are up to date? Are you installing AMD drivers directly from AMD rather than using Apple's?
Can you please boot into macOS and install and play the game just to rule out any hardware problem?

Seems like this was the fix, I installed all of the Mac OS updates and the Apple Windows updates and the game seems to be running flawlessly! Thanks for the fix!!
