I'm still having the same problem as you with disc 2 even after reading all of these. going through the folder on my computer for the cd leaves me empty handed too, there is absolutey nothing i can even do with disc 2 besides read a bunch of zip files. my thoughts are maybe everything to be installed was taken care of by disc 1? i have no clue... but it's driving me crazy.
I was also never prompted to insert disc 2 as disc 1 only downloaded via origin and completed fully. I can play my game just fine but the only content that I can really say I saw that did come with the premium edition are the animal hats and odd outfits like the hotdog and clown and a dunce looking hat as well. If there is any other content on disc 2 and others are not getting what they fully paid for like myself (whatever that may be) then I hope this issue is addressed as quickly as possible. Like someone said, we just want to play the game and have fun, not deal with the frustration. It sucks that I can barely download the game or load it up before already having problems with it.
And where's the soundtrack at? Like, I don't understand anything anymore lol

If you're unsure whether you have the game completely installed, just right click the game tile in Origin and select "Verify Game Files" "Check for Updates". The game itself shouldn't launch without having downloaded the latest updates and checked it is complete.
Have you tried downloading the game through Origin?

This solution worked for me!
I deleted anything of Sims 4 in add and remove programs then did this as someone else suggested on here.
I opened internet explorer and went to the www.Origin.com website but did not login. I clicked the little gear wheel in the top right corner of the browser.
Click Internet Options
Click Security Tab
Click Trusted Sites
Click Sites in the little box
A window popped up & had the origin web address in the 'add this website to the zone' box.
Click Add
Click Close
Then I installed it again as per directions and it worked out and asked for the second disc. Have been playing all eve so getting used to the new Sims.
The only thing once you click on the desk top icon it will open by origin having to use the internet. I was sure I heard you dont need the net with this new Sims 4. After reading a lot of posts I havent come across anyone talking about that point. On the upside it works this way.

Give @aarshiya 's workaround a try if the steps advised in my previous message do not help. 🙂 - thecharsims12 years agoSeasoned Veteran
I can only assume that the 2nd disk is the soundtrack bcus my first disk, disc 1 installed fine and included all premium content such as the animal hats, up all night and life of the party. I have all of that so I really don't know what else to say, do or think.
I don't get it and I wish someone from Ea knew exactly what disc 2 is.
- Anonymous12 years agoThe install may have completed via download as well if your Origin was online.
The 2nd disc definitely contains install data, about 600Mb of it (some of it, for instance, is in-game lots). But if you're connected to the Internet there's a good chance that Origin downloaded install data on the fly. 🙂
