Recently my game started not loading, it would load the first screen after a few minutes and then when you pick which town you want to go into it basically wont load. I waited probably over an hour the other night and it was only half way.
This first happened after i installed a bunch of cc and i figured thats what the issue was, however i didn't know what i had installed so instead i uninstalled everything, games included, and started over fresh. I installed the game and with and without cc it still wont load. the game ran perfectly great before.
:wtf:

In order to better solve your problem, please go through the following as listed below:

Sims 3 - Loading Crashes
If your game is crashing on load, with or without an error message, or the game starts up then just disappears, then you have a loading crash.

Please see the following FAQ and go through the steps listed in order to try fixing your game: Game_Help:Sims_3_Loading_Crashes.

Sims 3 - Uninstall
This Game_Help:TS3_Uninstall link has the step-by-step instructions to guide you through uninstalling The Sims 3, and its packs (EP/SP).

If you're reinstalling because you're reverting to an older patch, or just do not want to use the Launcher/EADM to patch, read this FAQ Game_Help:TS3_Patching once through before patching and then follow the guide.

What format were those CC in?
Did you remember to clear the \Mods\ folder when you uninstall, if they were .package files?

Or maybe, before you try again, if you hadn't done that Crash FAQ to do that first.

And the 310M is not strong enough to handle the game. If you look at the colored codes in this Game_Help:TS3_System_Requirements, the best cards are above the x5xx or x5x sub-models in each series.

On occasion you might be asked to do a long FAQ - please make sure you do all the steps and don't just skip over them. You'll often find that these long FAQs have all the details you need. If nothing in the above FAQs fixes your problem you may post again detailing exactly which you have done and which steps failed.
