It's not a sollution but a workaround.
You can play in windowed mode with a resolution as big as your screen.
I do that too because I like to be able to look up something on MTS or sims wiki while I'm playing.
I also keep track of the budget and age of my sims in Excel.

I just go to the screenoptions in game and change it too the same as my screen is. But I don't have the UC.
I just installed all EP's and SP's with CD.

I have the UC. Did you go into graphics options in game and change it to the highest resolution?

It does mention SimCity as well however I have person never tried to configure SimCity with this program. Worked like a charm with sims 2 though.

It might be worth a shot cause the lag keeps me from playing it.
