Is there a way of emulating old video cards on a new mac?

[wigglesworth]

as stated, specifically I want to run Sim City 4 on my Mac Book Pro

2.66 intel i7
8gb ram
NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M 512mb
OSx 10.6.4

I checked the Aspyr Game Agent and it tells me it only supports
GeForce2 MX
Radeon 7500

the game will run but its glitchy, and slow, and occasionally freezes

so i know there are for PC but i cant any for the mac...

Have you tried manually switching the graphics card and try the game on the different cards?

You can use "gfxcardstatus" to change the cards.

do you mean like actually by a new graphics card and instal? or is there some setting i don't know about that allows me to install older drivers and run my new card as a older card?

Sim City 4 was not Intel-native when first released. Try the patch from here.
