Hi Folks,
my screen stayed black after game start, but i heard all sounds/music and could exit the game by ALT-F4. This happend after i bought a new monitor and could choose a higher resolution with my old graphic card.
I solved this problem by reducing the desktop resolution under windows to force sim city to use a lower resolution. Then I choosed the windowed-mode in sim city preference and an even lower resoltution. After this I closed sim city, reseted the desktop resolution to the recommened value, restarted sim city and was able to choose the right resolution in preference including turning back the fullscreen mode.
I hope this will help some of you.
