Hellooo. I am having a bit of a problem with my game, and I would be very appreciative if someone would help me. I recently had a brand new hard drive put in my HP computer(about 450 gigabytes), and the drivers are up to date.After I got it back, I installed Sims 3, the Diesel Stuff expansion pack, and the Generations expansion pack. The first few days I played it, it had no problems, but yesterday I was in build mode when the screen went black for a few seconds, the mouse disappeared, and a blue screen popped up saying something went wrong. It then restarts itself and now it does it every time I play my game. Any ideas on how to fix this? Thank you (:
