There are a lot of problems with this game, people are having all kinds of problems. They need to bring a patch out, or they should have finished the game in the first place.

I've heard the game does have a few bugs with Radeon graphics cards, maybe that's the problem stems from? We need more info to help.

I have a P4 2.4 with over 1Gig of Ram but the game runs so slow, when you move around the screen it takes a few seconds for the buildings to appear. This can’t be right? Also it randomly exits to the desktop and crashes my computer. Nice!
If there is no patch out shortly then its going back.

I aint touching Sim City 4 with a 20-foot sim pole. I only have 600Mhz Athlon, 384 MB Ram (alright) and a poor NVIDIA RIDIA TNsomething or other 64. Yippee ki yay. How much is a top-of-the-range graphics card nowadays?

No, you're just discovering how hard the game actually is. The previous installments of the Sim City series have always been hard, and from what I hear, SC4 is even harder.
