Hey @crinrict! Thanks for your help.

I forgot to list number 4, I did try a complete reinstall of the graphics drivers.

I am reluctant to use earlier graphics drivers for one game. Perhaps there is a way to run it in an older system version? I had also tried running it as an administrator and in compatibility mode with other versions of Windows. I'm just disappointed that EA should have such a fatal flaw in programming, what with trying to run Origin and all that.

P.S. You're a beast. Basically every single thing I tried was from other things you posted. I appreciate all of the work you put into keeping Sims 4 running. EA should be paying you.
