Halp!!! Game crashing on gaming rig!
J. M. Pescado:
"Dell just took control of your system"? I suggest you REFORMAT IMMEDIATELY, since it should be obvious that "Dell" knows nothing about Sims, and therefore would not be able to fix your issues, so you just got hacked.
Zazazu:
It's a "feature" of one of the waste-o-money Dell warranties. I also share your belief that Dell knows absolutely nothing about how the sims works and is prolly just feeding you a line to get you to shut up and go away.
Hook:
Do you play with testing cheats enabled, and if so, are you getting any errors? If you don't have it enabled, turn it on and see what you get.
Is this is a residence or an apartment?

Try playing a different neighbourhood without CC. If it doesn't crash, you can then be reasonably sure that your problem is your backed up neighbourhood or your CC, and not the game itself.

Will do.
ETA: I found several errors like this in my Event Viewer: "The entry <C:\USERS\PAM\DOCUMENTS\EA GAMES\THE SIMS 2\NEIGHBORHOODS\G001\G001_NEIGHBORHOOD.PACKAGE> in the hash map cannot be updated. Context: Application, SystemIndex Catalog. Details: A device attached to the system is not functioning. (0x8007001f)"
Any ideas?
Latest ETA: Either it's a coincidence, or I fixed the problem. And, boy, do I feel stupid. I had my CC compressed with the Compressorizer but neglected to install Microsoft .NET Framework. As soon as I did, no more crashes -- d'oh! ::)
