I keep having problems with SimCity 3000 Unlimited Edition.When I install it and the play it,I see the Maxis logo and then I see the intro...I get excited after looking at the intro and then i wait a few secounds and...I heard the music,but no game.I even waited 5 minutes and it was just a black screen with music.I got off the game and searched on the internet for 30 minutes for a answer to my problem and got nothing.I need help on whats happening!!!

B.T.W-I own a Windows XP Home Edition.(Made in 2002,SimCity 3000 was made in 1999 or 2000.)

....Nevermind...
I noticed that it happened because I checked the SimCity 3000 Unlimited file and I compared it to the files needed with a guy I know that also has SimCity 3000 Unlimited and I'm missing some files...I think I need to reinstall it...
