I have Sim City 4 installed on my laptop, the only problem is that the original laptop screen is busted.  I hooked up a second monitor to my laptop and now use this as my main scree but Sim City 4 keeps coming up on the main (broken) screen.  Is there a way to make it come up on the new screen or a way to make it on a window?

Heloo and welcome to the site.

To play SimCIty 4 in Windowed mode, right-click the game icon and click properties.

On the target section type, with a space between the path and command, one of the codes below. It will tell the game to run the game in widowed mode, at a specified size (like 1024x768)

To switch between a laptop screen and the default screen, consult your laptop's manual. If you own a toshiba laptop, for example, the command is Fn+F5

left click on desktop, properties, settings tab...there should be a set default monitor thing.

Is it possible to have your city stretch across two monitors? It'd be cool, but then SimCity would be more like a slideshow.

in fact, i've asked that before and it is possible! i don't know how

Best is look in your laptop reference and see what the keying sequence is to switch from the default monitor to the auxiliary port.  If you don't have the manual, try the manufacturer's site.
