My ssd had a SMART death. I replaced it with a new one and now I cannot launch EA/The Sims. It never happened before on any computer. I installed a new/clean installation from the windows media tool thing. I installed it as new w/o any prior files. Every time I try to open The Sims it crashes. I am not having problems with any other program. I have all my Windows Updates done. I have not changed anything. Every setting is factory. I do not understand how to read reliability reports though I did get them. I am so confused. I do not know how or why this is happening. I do not believe it is an EA Software glitch because no one seems to have heard of this kind of error and cannot help resolve. Is it something Windows? I don't understand how to resolve this. I don't even know if this information is useful:
