1) Download and install CFF Explorer

2) Run the program, click the folder icon or go to FILE >> OPEN and browse your PC for the Sims 3 exe (TS3.exe) usually found at C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Game\Bin

Make a backup of your original exe just incase something goes wrong.

3) Click on File Header at the left, find characteristics at the right and click the "Click here" blue button.

4) Tick "App can handle >2GB address space

To access this goto (Start - Settings - Control panel) and run System. Click on the Advance tab and click on the Settings button for Performance. Click the TAB for Data execution prevention and click the option to (Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select: ) and add TS3.EXE to the list and ok it and reboot.
