@SugaKookies44 As a test, please try playing in a clean user folder. Move the entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents > Electronic Arts and onto your desktop, and when you launch the game, if it launches, a clean folder will spawn with no content. (Your saves and other content will be intact in the folder you moved but temporarily not read by the game.) Don't add anything to the new folder yet; just let me know whether you can get far enough to start a new save and play in live mode for a bit.
If that doesn't help, please run a dxdiag and attach it to a post.

If you prefer not to move the Sims 4 folder, you can rename it instead. This accomplishes the same thing: the game won't be able to find the folder and will create a new one with no content.
@puzzlezaddict here's the dxdiag file; after some other tries I still can't get either of these solutions to budge unfortunately
