I have Sims 4 Premium Edition running on Windows 8. Put in first disc and ran it as suggested. When I went to put in the second disc that auto run file couldnt be found. I went into the Sims 4 files. 2 auto runs and a zip file. Clicked on the auto run file with the Sims green icon as with the zip file gives me lists of
where would you like the file to open into? Thats my question guys. Been waiting for this game for months now a cant even open it. I hope its not the start of things to come....as I love playing this game like everyone we want enjoyment not frustration. Im sure we all appreciate a quick solution to this issue. Disapointed. :womansad:I re booted didnt work.

As I wrote I put the first disc in as the instructions. But I found the problem. ORIGIN WAS THE PROBLEM. After uninstalling orgiin from my computer then just put in the first disc it will load and put in origin again it will load the game put in your code then at 98% will ask for the other disc continue with the prompts and all is good. I have tried this on Windows Vista and Windows 8.1 all good.
Just to let you know. I did try to update Origin first it wouldnt do it. The Windows Vista origin wasnt installed in the first place but ran the game as I mentioned above. On windows 8.1 only first disc installed until I did above.
Interestly to note the people I designed in the demo preview that was emailed to me before game release were still there when I installed the first disc first time around. Now that I deleted origin and installed the game as above the sims I had there are gone but game works so all good. I hope this can help out a few people that are having issues loading the game.
Ok after all this when I click on the desk top icon it asked me to sign into origin so obviously working through there. My understand is that this game can be run without internet what can I do now if I want that option?
