How can I play Sims 3 without the World Adventures disk?

I want to play Sims 3, a relatively simple request, right? I also have World Adventures installed. I currently have the Sims 3 disk and serial number, but only have the World Adventures serial number, not the disk.

Every time I try to open Sims 3 it requests the World Adventures disk to be put in, which I don't have and don't even want to play!!

Is there some way around this? I heard of some kind of crack.exe but have no idea what that is, where I get one, or how I use it. Should I just uninstall World? I really freaking want to play Sims >=S

Both copies were bought legitimately, if that helps. And they're on PC.

Thanks for any help!

Update:

I've found this site:

but I don't know what to do next. There's all this stuff about patches and mirrors and it's getting messy

Update 2:

Shoot, forgot to add site *blushes*

    i think you can email EA games and report that You hav lost your disc! You put in the code and they will send you a new one. Might be a charge tho! Worth Checking how much!

    Im sure ther is a patch for the game to play without the disc....Try looking on Youtube!

    Good Luck

    It asks for sims 3 disk because that's your latest expansion pack. You can play sims 3 without WA but you would have to uninstall it first.
