Sim City 4 in windows xp on macbook pro 2.4ghz core 2 duo

So I installed win xp 32 bit in bootcamp into a 32 gig NTFS parition, i installed my bootcamp drivers. I put the sim city disc 1 into the drive, typed in my cd key, watched the progress bar install. Disc 2 went in and it got really slow and froze up all together at 94%. I deleted the install files, restarted and tried again. I finally got it to completely install, the icon automaticly appeared on my desktop but it didn't ask me about if i wanted to do that. I tried to click on the icon and it failed to launch sim city 4. The whole autplay function seems not to work when i put the disc in as well...


Any clue on whats going on? does sim city 4 windows version not support dual cores or 64 bit processors

Windows requirements to run the game can be found here.
