Error codes 12 and 13 along with crashing.
ladycoelura:
Something I have noticed with these errors as I have suffered from them too as well as the crashes the can come with them. Mostly on my main and most valued family. Is that the Difficulty of the family seems to have a bearing in whether this is happening. Because I can go from a house that is getting errors within 15 to 30 minutes of game play and crashing shortly after that and the thing with going out into the town and making changes hasn't helped me at all so far when I tried it. And I even tried dealing with EA as useless as that was. In the end I got a 1000 store credit for my trouble and that instruction on how to do the work around with the town edit. But if I go to some of my lower difficulty families and play there is no trouble whatsoever. I find this interesting and it kind of goes with what I have been reading about lower file save sizes cause I am sure they would be. Just thought I would mention this.
For those interested I am running windows vista ultimate 23-bit, memory 4gigs, AMD Phenom 9600B Quad-core Processor 2.30 ghz and without doing some digging I can't remember what I have for my graphics card but I remember it was more then capable.

AFAICT, there is only 32-bit or 64-bit.

This is what I did to my game which helped. It may not be 100% effective since there are many factors causing the error 12s.
The commands can be done in random order. Try which ones works for you.
Use after starting a new loaded game.
Using Awesomemod:
1. Resetallwants
2. Cleanhouseholds all
3. Refreshtraits all
4. Purgegenetichair
5. Fixall
6. Fixagingstates
7. Purgereactions
8. Fixromances
9. Towderelicts on (sometimes this command does not work on some cars and you have to individually nuke stuck cars)
10. Resetworld
11. Destroyallnpcs (Some grim reaper hacks and outfits + 1.3 game update causes bugged reapers)
12. Destroyalltownies (optional) but sometimes the townies are bugged
13. ResetDnP all
14. Destroycorruptsims (so far this command always yield me 'zero' corrupt sims but better be safe)
Using NRaas Supercomputer
1. Recover Lost Sims
2. Recover Wandering Toddlers
3. Turn off stereos
Save
Quit and restart game.
Observe if performance and saving game improve. Try saving every 15 minutes (use Awesomemod autosave feature)
Another option, if this does not work, try re-installing the game. Redo the above commands and re-observe.
So far these seemed to fix 80% of my Error 12 problems. Again, the above does not solve all the error problems but it corrects some of it. When I first tried these commands it really surprised me how much bugs and errors I have collected over 3 months of playing. (hmm, probably there's a hidden EAxis skill, the 3rd type "Bug Collecting" classification.)
tizerist:
For what its worth, I only tried resetworld after actually getting the error 12. Perhaps I should do it upon boot up.
Thanks for the extra info, all may not be lost after all.

Sorry meant 32-bit. Dyslexia hard at work again i guess.
