I guess this

was needed

There was not enough to go on in your post. I can be blunt sometimes...sorry

So have you checked for and applied any game patches
Does your machine meet or exceed the game specs
Machine specs- vid card, enough hard drive space, cpu, sound card,ram etc
Do you have updated drivers for your hardware
and any other information can be helpful

well i turned off the sound on the sim city game...and it works just fine.....so i am assuming it has something to do with my sound card driver needing updated.....so i will try that and turn the sound back on...........thanks!
