I recently went from a Mac+ to a IIci.  I was told by Maxis that Sim City
will not work with 32-bit quickdraw and, since the IIci has 32-bit qd in Rom,
the two will never work together.  But I decided to try anyway.
  I tried to boot up w/ the Sim City key disk and the I had a glorious crash
from the 512k system on the disk.  When I try to boot from system 6.0.5 and
then run Sim City, I get an alert box asking me for the key disk (which I'm
using).  Is this because of my 32-bit quickdraw?  If so (or even if not) is
there any way (eg init) to "fool" sim city into thinking I'm not using 32-bit
quickdraw?  (PS I had my system set on "2 colors")
-thanks
