Just wondering if anyone else experiences this?

Happens sometimes when creating a sim and almost all the time when I double click on my Sims face when going to work.

Running the game at full settings @ 1920 x 1080, with the latest 1.2.7 patch.

The game doesn't BSOD - it just locks up. I can still move the mouse around fine, even though the world is locked, but can't go back to Windows.
 
*neuks pitbull over the head*

Anyways I haven't had any problems... but then again I haven't played much.

anyways have you tried reinstall? Driver update?
I googled around and that's some solutions(or rather suggestions) that I found. Apparently alot of people are getting some sort of issues.

My *ahem* erm, little sister, has had the same problems with Sims 3.

The game seems to lock up at random intervals every hour or so
 
I've played the game for hours on end without issues to date, although I'm using the version straight out the box and its cracked too,whether that makes a difference I have no idea.Also running it on 1650x1080 on an HD4850
