Have you updated your graphics card driver? And the patches for the games up to and including Apartment Life?

fireaye,, Re the Reinstall

When you have uninstalled all your game files you will have to check and make sure that there are NO stray folders and tsdat, tsbin files left behind as sometimes there is and when you reinstall it will be all a waste because the ones left behind will corrupt the New ones.
If you find any Delete them,
Run Registry Mechanic or similar too, to clean up old Registry entries before New install
My partner just went through all this with problems with Apartment Life,  also dont use AL Patch as it is still to Buggy, and doesn't fix half of the problems that are in AL, as with patch installed it freezes some lots when loading them.

good luck
