Sims 2 legacy re-release crashing

So I decided to get the sims 2 legacy edition because I generally love the game and all. I booted up the game about three days ago (feb2/3) and whenever I would use any asset that uses 3d (When you add a sim in cas/play a household) I would get the pop up "Direct 3d returned an error: D3DERR_INVALIDCALL! the application will now terminate." So I tried to be patient after searching and eventually gave up. Today I was VERY excited to see there is a new update. Only to see whenever I use anything using the 3d assets as stated before, It will now say "Application has crashed, It will now terminate" and kick me out of the game. I've already deleted the "Neighborhoods" file in the electronic arts folder in documents to clear up any corruption. I've really hit a blank and I need any help if possible.
