Hey @Baby_Momma2012

I have moved your thread to the Sims 4 forums.

It is possible to install Sims 4 without your CD/DVD by simply logging into your Origin account and downloading the game from there.

How to install The Sims 4 base game using Origin:

Launch the Origin client. If prompted, log in using your Origin information.

Click the My Games tab.

If you’ve already purchased the game, it will display as its own game tile.

Hover over the game tile, or right-click the tile. Select Download.

@JeimyCeciliano You can buy Sims 4 directly from Origin, or you can register a product code from a physical copy in your Origin library. (Click the + Add a game button.) Either way, you can then download the game from your library without needing to use a disc.
