feralmutt127 Thanks for the dxdiag. Most of the Sims 4 crashes it lists point to one component or another of the 2015 and newer VC++ runtimes, so please uninstall and reinstall those. Open Windows Settings > Apps, scroll down to the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables, click any version from 2015 or newer, and uninstall. (Don't touch the older versions.) You can get new copies here:

You'll need both the x86 and x64 versions of the 2022 runtimes, but not the earlier ones. Restart your computer after installing them and before trying to play.
If that doesn't help, remove anything ReShade-related, repair the game (Steam > Sims 4 > Properties > Installed Files > Verify integrity of the game files), and try again.
