Like the title says my game keeps freezing for a couple of minuets, i have tried all the regular fixes being posted, i have even re-installed the game deleting everything to start over but its still happening, anyone got any ideas why it would still be happening?
I have:
Sims 3
Late Night
Ambitions
Supernatural
Seasons
Island Paradise
Into the Future
High-end Loft Stuff
Town Life Stuff
I know my PC can more than handle it so its not that. Any help you can pass this way would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Check if your graphic card is properly recognized by the game:

Looks ok too.
Are you using custom content or mods ? Did you completely delete the user folder and let the game create a new one when you started fresh ?
Good Luck
