I got the Sims 3 back in June 2015. Loved it. It was GREAT... until I did the November update. Then it would play for like a minute and crash every time. So I did the January update after that, now it doesn't crash but it lags AWFUL and all the popup boxes are just blank, black. Anyone else having this problem? And please don't tell me to move my folder here or there. That doesn't work. Tried it.

Have you tried repairing the game ?
What version does the launcher currently give you ?
Good Luck

I don't have it open right now, I'm not with the computer it's installed on. I have whatever the latest version is, I know that. I have tried EVERYTHING. It's to the point to where I don't even touch the game anymore.

Your processor is below minimum specs for this game and your graphics drivers are from 2013. Check if there are newer ones.
Do you have any expansion packs installed at all ?
I don't know why it ran before.
Good Luck
