Whenever I play the screen will randomly turn blue and have a loading hand, sometimes it returns to the game, and I won't do anything and it goes back. But sometimes it never goes back and the loading hand goes away and just stays as a blue screen. Once the screen started to blink and the only way to get out is turning off my computer.

I have check my graphixs cards, andtried to find a folder that is affecting it, but nothing seems to work.

Why is this happening? Is is freezing?

Okay, as far as i can see your pc is powerfull enough. You might take a look at this thread: http://www.modthesims2.com/showthread.php?t=117748
The last pages are all people who have a similar problem. I'm not sure if there is a solution yet, but you can try it there.

This usually seems to be a memory issue- the bluescreen is when the computer has to dump the memory. When I was having the issue on my PC I managed to improve it by using different drivers and removing the old drivers, but the only thing that cured it completely was adding more RAM.

The game works fine on my other acounts though. How do I add more ram?
