It's because your wallpaper is damn too ugly.

Seriously, try to launch the game in software mode

Is NBA Live 2000 playable in XP?

[RadioSh@q]

On some computers depending on how old or new they are. My computer is brand new and top of the line and 2000 works on it fine! Strange... it didn't used to work at all on my computer.

try to launch the game in software mode

[joejam999]

It does it on my computer also. It did a couple times before i got a new hard drive but now it does it all the time and I cant get the game to run anymore

try to launch the game in software mode

how do i do that?

Start > Programs > EA Sports > NBA Live 2000 > 3D Setup

There you will find the option to switch to software mode. It's just to check if the problem comes from your video card.

[streetballaz1]

[joejam999]

After you do that switch it back and it should still work and your game wont look like crap.

[alexboom]

Yaya, but you're in software mode, with very ugly pixels... Try to update your video card drivers... What's your videocard by the way?

[streetballaz1]

RADEON 9550

[joejam999]

I switched it back and now it works.

[alexboom]

RADEON 9550

I have the ATI Radeon 9200 SE and it didn't work for me too... But I downloaded tweaked drivers on Omegadrivers.net and everything went fine after... But I can't ensure you it will work for you too, but at last these tweaked drivers are meant to improve your video card performances and to increase compability

[streetballaz1]

also could you tell me what link to i have to go to(direct link) and ere do i have to put it in

[alexboom]

you could have search by yourself

provided you have windows XP:

AlexBoom, your still a legend

I remember first signing up here and you posting back to me

thanks alex, your cool

Hey streetballaz1, if you still need help , let me know!

[adpar]

I've now the same problem. I have a GeForce FX5200 and in software-mode all works fine. When I switch, I see this damned error-message. Has anybody an idea?

[alexboom]

did you try tweaked drivers from omegacorner?

[twsmith]

I had that problem for a while, even after I added a GeForce 6600 GT 128MB card to the machine. For me, the error was caused by memory management. When running 1GB of RAM, the Live 2000 would crash with the "Unhandled Exception Error". So, I removed a SIMM and ran the game on 512MB, to perfection, at maximum settings.

It wasn't the memory (both modules tested fine), and it wasn't the MoBo (both seats tested fine). It was the way data was switched between the two modules! Go figure....

BTW, AlexBoom IS a legend. Thanks for keeping Live 2000 alive!!
