i'm lost

I've been using the simcity.com website for the upload and I have the disc in the drive. I think i'm just gonna let it go until i try it on a new computer... thanks for the help

So if I get a new/different copy of the game the update might work?

Please see above conversation Just answer the question. Use windows explorer and navigate to C:\Program Files\Maxis\Sim City 4 Deluxe\Apps then move your cursor over the SimCity 4.exe file. Post what version it displays.

Turns out I did (or my brother did) download one building a long time ago, but then deleted it. Would that matter? Also, would installing a different copy of the game help?

Tried the above... downloading and installing just fine, but the files aren't changing. bummer

I don't use avira, but i'll try to change the permissions and turn off the anti virus programs. thanks

I'm using Vista, and I think i'm just on the User account. i've got a few firewalls and malware programs running, but i didn't come across any message from them when i was downloading

The SKU1 file is there. How do I check if I'm on admin and how would that help?

sku_1 and i bought it in the US. the version is 1.1.610.0 and i haven''t uploaded any patches i don't have the steam version

Hey all I've been having trouble update my sc4 deluxe. I try downloading the update from the website, but after the install is complete none of the files have changed. The patch log says that everything updated correctly, but it's obviosly not true. I've reinstalled and re-downloaded several times, but it's not working. Any ideas?
