We just got SimCity 3000 Unlimited the Uk Edition..Boyfriends English, so he thought it a great little buy.
We checked the compatibility before buying to check that it would run on our system. And sure enough it said it could.
The program runs perfectly fine on the Administrator account.
But on any other family member accounts/profiles it get's an error message saying " SimCity 3000 has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience" . We can then proceed to send the error report to Microsoft.
I've tested it by placing the folders in the shared documents folder.
I re-installed it last night on my BF's administrator account (it is his computer) and then switched to my account and it worked fine. Then he switched back to his administrator account, it worked fine. Then this morning, it gets that error for me on my account.

I've tried loading it using the Compatibilty function in Xp to no avail.
I've searched around the internet for help, but it seems no one else has this problem. I also have sent a message to sold out software usng the install.Now feature on the cd and have yet to have a reply from them.
Gonna start pulling my hair out soon.
Does anyone else have any ideas?
