Sims

For the past two days my laptop has been crashing when I play the sims, it's done this before (which wasn't a surprise or bother to me since it always does this), but it crashes even harder. It know wipes all the memory from my laptop and I have to re-install everything when I play that game. I love the Sims 3 so much that I'm willing to live with it this way, but it's already getting tiring to do this. It's never happened before (to crash so much that it's deleted from my laptop's memory) so I don't know whether it's me, the computer, or the game who is at fault. I'm not doing anything different (my sister has been playing it though - which is more time the game is used but I doubt that does anything), so what's up with this?

Tl;dr: my sims 3 games crashes and I have to re-install it.

But anyways, I'm sorry that it happens to you too. I understand how annoying it must be :stare:

Is it just EA or something?

I don't know...my laptop has a few viruses on it, so I thought it might be that. Or that it's overheating or something. If it's happening to you too, though, it could be an EA problem...

Well, the times it wiped out my memory the laptop was hotter than usual...

What kind do you have, if you don't mind my asking?
nosedivve's avatar
It's a Samsung.

Okay...mine's a Gateway. So I guess it's not a comp-specific issue...

It could be raining.

Only if you have "Seasons" installed. LoL

Or you could listen to The Four Seasons by Vivaldi.

Or play the song of storms in ocarina of time.

Or, you know, something that isn't pointless and dumb.

It's the game...

It's made by EA they have a record for buggy ass games also well known for their levels of disdain for the customer.

I bought my mother a pretty decent rig for her birthday/ Christmas; 8gigs of ram, 3.6ish quad core processor with a decent video card and she still finds it crashes a bit.

I'll reiterate, it's the game.

I never hard trouble with my copy of The Sims 3
I got almost every expansion :shrug:

I just find at times the game tends to lag a bit.
