So, I installed Origin and Sims 4 on the laptop. It worked fine. After a bit more troubleshooting on the desktop, I found the culprit: it was the Fraps FPS counter software:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraps
Fraps is a very lightweight and accurate FPS counter software, and a lot of people still use it, even though it hasn't been updated since 2013.
With Fraps running before starting the game (I always keep Fraps running), the Origin In-Game overlay stops working completely, for some reason. I've been using Fraps for years without issues, but after the latest Origin and Sims 4 updates it seems Fraps is no longer compatible with Origin In-Game, at least for Sims 4.
