Re: sims crashing everytime i open the map

@Kittysaurusrex45  There are too many potential issues that can cause TS3 to crash to cover them all at once.  What would be most helpful is if you could run a dxdiag on your computer and attach the results to a post here (use the Browse button).

Please also list the other packs you have installed, if any.

Re: sims crashing everytime i open the map

@Kittysaurusrex45  I didn't ask you to do anything to fix your game yet.  Running a dxdiag doesn't do anything except collect information about your computer.  The point of it is that I can read it and then give you specific advice, rather than throwing out random suggestions and hoping one works.  And again, it would also be helpful to know which packs you've installed, other than Pets.

@Kittysaurusrex45  Okay, but there should still be a button to run the dxdiag.  If it helps, here are instructions on how to run a dxdiag in earlier versions of Windows:
