Sims 3 crashes when loading a family.
Turd Ferguson:
Hi ya'll.
I wanted to reach out for a bit of help for a problem I think might be unique to my install.
I'll start the game up fine and dandy. I load up a neighborhood and I can go into Edit Town, browse the catalog, do some building, etc. Here's where the problem begins. When I load up a household, ANY household, the game crashes. No error pop up or anything, just instantly back on the desktop. I'll enter the household, see the Sims standing outside, and about 40 seconds later, crash. This happens no matter what I do. I've gone in, watch them stand there on the sidewalk for 30 or 40 seconds, no interactions or anything, and get thrown back to the desktop.
Now I currently have Late Night installed, but this problem actually occurred BEFORE I put Late Night in. I have awesome mod and its framework installed, I've cleared my caches, removed all my CC and mods, and got the latest version of AwesomeMod. I can also supply an error document the game crapped into the "My Documents" folder.

Happens to me too. I can play every 3 or 4 attempts though.

Use this and post your result.

When you say latest version of AM which one are you referring to? You need to be using the test version with the last patch and/or LN.
The wrong version of AM could well be the cause, did you try the game with AM to see what would happen?
My game runs fine, dropped all the mods from my game, applied the test AM and everything works as it should, no desktop crashes, nothing untoward at this time.
Turd Ferguson:
After doing a completely clean and fresh install, and spending HOURS patching everything up, I tried again and guess what? STILL NOT FIXED.
I'm going to try Claeric's suggestion, but this shit is getting retarded.
EDIT: Turns out it was one of those data execution prevention things. I really wish I had known that before I baleeted everything.
Mods can go a head and delete this thread.
