How to check which version of DirectX is on your system: click the Start menu, then choose Run. In the box type dxdiag and press Enter on your keyboard. A new Window will appear and your version of DirectX will be listed at the bottom.
For the video card, you could check the device manager

Go to Start->Run type dxdiag and press enter. This will tell you what version of DirectX has and the specs for your video card.
Hint: I bet it's not working because your card doesn't support the correct Shader Model version, for Sim City, I would guess it's version 2.0

Go to Start --> Run and type dxdiag and then click OK. That will give you all the information on your DirectX version. If you go to the Display tab, that will tell you the model and information about your video card.

There is a program called "Everest" Search for the Home Edition, the maker stopped creating new versions, but you can still find it on download sites, it has GREAT information about your computer, and is very simple to navigate! Its Free btw
