The first time I launched SC4: Deluxe it worked. Then when I saved and quit, I installed NAM, RHW, and HSRP in the My Documents\SimCity4\Plugins , fired it up again, then after the bridge screen, I hear an error sound and it crashes, but no error. I removed the plugins, but again. I tried reinstall, but it said something about SimCity 4.exe <Retry> <Cancel> Hitting retry over and over again didn't do anything. I tried moving SimCity 4.exe from Maxis\SimCity Deluxe, but an error said I can't move it or delete it. So i installed it in Maxis\SimCity 4 Deluxe2. Tried again, crash. Installed patch, crash. Help me please.

Yeah. ake1624, you're not using the latest version. The latest version is 1.1.640.0. You can find every patch you'll need here.
