@elejaydubu If you want an opinion on your current laptop, please run a dxdiag and attach it to a post.

This will give me a hardware overview, list free and total storage, and show me what software errors (if any) you might want to address. Please also let me know whether this dxdiag was run with Sims 4 already installed.
The question here is whether storage is the only major problem or there's another serious limitation on how well this laptop can run Sims 4. It doesn't have much RAM, but 4 GB is (barely) enough to work with if you're only installing the base game and Island Living and you're not running anything else at the same time.
