Hi, I recently bought the SimCity Box! I received the following:
DISK 1:

DISK 2:

BOTH THESE DISKS SAY ..."AND SIMCITY 4 RUSH HOUR EXPANSION PACK"

I'm having the following errors come up after double-clicking the Autorun file:

Drive shows up:

Autorun file available on drive:

????1??? error after double-clicked Autorun file:

???????? error after clicking [CANCEL] for previous error message:

Other note, if I hit [OK] on the ????1??? error the error doesn't go away, if I hit cancel then a new ??????? error appears, if I then hit cancel on the new error it goes back to the ????1??? error again, if i hit [Yes] on the ???????? error the error box disappears.

I'm running Windows XP on a mac using Parallels 6 software.

Any help is appreciated.

I'm not the expert, but  - have you tried installing the game on a "normal" Windows PC (that is, a PC completely set-up as a windows machine)? Does this give the same result? .. just to exclude the possiblility of your "mac using Parallels 6 software" configuration beeing the problem ..
If it's a good idea, go ahead and do it. It's much easier to apologize than it is to get permission.
