installing simcity 4 on new computer

I have tried this and it still doesn't seem to work, plus I can't seem to
recreate the region as a whole. I gave the other computer away to someone
so I can't go back and try to transfer files again. Any ideas?

Put all your cities files into directory Downloads in your Region Directory
in MyDocument .... then start the game .... make a new region .... and click
on a land and then import ... a dialog box with the files in downloads will
open ... pick a city and click ok .... repeat for all other cities ..

OTOH if you saved the whole region .. not just the cities .... then
simply put that folder inside Region Directory in My Document and it will be
in the game when you start and click on the folder Icon ..

I also had this problem, when I needed to re-install Windows. The
first time I lost everything. Last time, I copied the contents of the
corresponding folders in the SC4 folder as well, and this worked. You
may be able to copy what's in "My Documents" across, if you have them,
and get it to work that way. For some reason, the contents of these
two folders can be different.
