Do you have any custom content? If so, remove your downloads folder & see if that helps.

I know you said it's a fresh install, but did you put your old neighborhoods back in? Maybe your neighborhood is corrupt.

Another thing to try it delete the cigen.package file in your sims folder.

That's great because I didn't mean to say cigen.package file! :alarm:
I meant the groups.cache file. Something to remember if your game goes funny sometime in the future.
