@HannahC974914   Make sure your computer meets the requirements of the game. See the stickies in this section of the forum.

Make a brand new folder as described here:

Don't move over your old files before testing to see if the game works in the new folder.

 

Disable Origin In-Game, both in Origin application, as well on the Sims 4 icon in My Game Library.

Play in Windowed mode.

If that doesn't help, post your dxdiag. Here is how:
