Sim City 4 Deluxe woes!....
Posted: Tue Dec 10, 2013 11:47 amPopped into town this morning on my Motor-bike to buy some new batteries for my various Wall Clocks, and in the process found I had left my leather Motor-bike gloves in one of the shops when I returned to my Bike.... 
...!
"Sod it!", I thought, I'll just have to buy some new gloves!...
...!
Having got back home. I thought about how lovely those gloves were, 'cos they fitted me like a glove, and how much I miss them....
So I popped back into town again in the afternoon, trawled around the various shops I had visited....
...and low and behold, when I enquired, one of the shop assistants gave me a big smile, and said..."HERE!"...
...!
I was so delighted, that on my was back to my Bike, I popped into the local Game Shop and treated myself to a brand-new copy of "Sim City 4 Deluxe"...(and almost left my gloves behind again!).
..anyway...when I tried to install it, after entering the Serial Code on the back of the Manual, it said; "code not recognised"...
Tried umpteen times without success, so I checked the problem on the various internet Forums and it seems that everyone and his dog are having exactly the same problem, going back for many years!
I think I have just thrown £5 down the Toilet!
Anyone here had similar problems with entering the correct Sim City 4 serial code, and finding it "not accepted!"?...
...!
...and I have just bought a cement mixer in readiness for building Sim City 4!...Buggar!... ...!
Still...at least I got my comfy gloves back, so all is not lost...
...!

Reading about all the various problems with the recent Sim City versions, anyone recommend getting one of the older/better/more reliable versions of the Sim City game?
