·What is the option you are selecting in compatibility tab while installing the game?

In compatibility center of windows 7 SimCity 4 is compatible, here is the link you may refer to: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/Search.aspx?type=Software&s=SIMCITY%204%20deluxe

But SimCity 4 deluxe is not compatible with windows vista: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-vista/Details.aspx?type=Software&p=Sim%20City%204%20Deluxe&v=EA&uid=&pf=0&pi=7&c=PC%20Gaming&sc=Strategy&os=64-bit

Try installing the game normally, as the game is compatible with windows 7 and check if it helps.

You may even post the thread in the game manufacturer forum, for any suggestion from them and check: http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/categories/list.page
