Are you running other mods, and have you tried removing them and running AM on it's own, even with a fresh game rather than an old save.

Try rolling back your drivers instead? I haven't seen these particular issues but when I updated to 197.45 I did start getting crashes to bluescreen nvblahblah.dll has failed. I rolled back to an older driver and haven't had any problems since. So it may actually be an incompatibility with the newer drivers.
Hmm, I see. Okay I will check that out.

I had floating land when I inadvertently installed Riverview.sims3pack into a .dbc cache, as well as having Riverview.world in my 'worlds' folder.
Floating land? Ouch. I don't even have Riverview installed right now so I don't think that's an issue, but thanks.

Yeah, I recently thought of that, the only mods I have are things like Delphy's sliders, Johan sliders, but I didn't think that AM would conflict with regular downloads like hair, skin, clothes, accessories, patterns, etc, does it? Cause I have quite a bit of those.

Try removing them anyway. Some hairs have been know to cause problems at different times, and while it seems a direct conflict with AM is unlikely, anything is possible. I use some of the sliders, and no problems, but the best way to troubleshoot is to try everything, no matter how small or inconsequential it may seem.
Drop ALL mods/CC except for AM, clear the caches, then start a fresh new game and see what happens. If the game runs properly, try adding the mods/CC slowly and keep checking until you can identify where the problem is. A fresh new game helps eliminate a dying game as the problem.

Okay. I will do that, but I just have two questions, (and this is where I get burned) In the AM download thread, there are 2 zip files; mirror 1 & mirror 2, is there a difference between the two? And where do I put the AM file, in the Mods folder or the base Sims 3 folder?

Both links are for the same file. Install the awesome.package file (and the config if you use it) into your mods/packages folder.
