Thanks for the info. I updated my drivers to the march 5th update. Unfortunately the lagging and freezing still continues.
Could you re-run your DxDiag ?
Here it is!
Yup, that looks fine now. Pity it didn't help. Unfortunately with freezing issues it's insanely hard to tell what's causing it.
Does the issue affect all your households ? It sounds similar to this: Time/Sim freezes while environment still moves | EA Forums - 11885395 but from what I tested, it's not affecting all families.
It's probably something in the background firing if it freezes at the same time that causes issue. Do you get any notifications after it unfreezes ? Like phone or the ones in upper right corner ?
EDIT; You do have a lot of Windows Updates errors. Make sure your windows doesn't have any outstanding updates to install.
No unfortunately, there a some similarities; not being able to switch between sims, the environment moving. But my sims stand frozen on the spot/sitting. Sometimes I am able to right click at reset the sim between freezing and then they just t-pose. But then unfortunately the sim is still frozen. Most the time its proceeded by nothing. I've got into the habit of getting up and walking away to do something else and I come back and the game is running as is, no pop-ups.
If I play with a new household it does not at first, however as time goes on it starts happening. This is the case with all households I've played, since, I want to say, early January.
I will update windows, thanks.
