2000 working on Windows 7?

Anyway to make NBA Live 2000 work in my computer with Windows 7? Maybe a virtual PC? Found the disc a couple of weeks ago (I had XP before that damn virus)...

Does XP compatibility work at all?

I think you should use Win2000 or older compatibility

Wow the game is a full 10 years older than the OS!
I don't see that game working for you. Sorry.

Further to my previous post, you might want to give this a look:

Installed, and now I'm playing it on Windows 7 Funny thing is that, you can play NBA 2000 on XP-Windows 7, but you can't play NBA Live 2001. I tried, few times to install and play, but I couldn't .

Hello, I have Windows 7 64bits and got NBA Live 2000 to work on it with D3D graphics and no stack trace error, so I came here to tell what I did, if it can help for future players :

-No installation as the setup is a 16bits program that doesn't run on Seven-64. I had it installed on a XP from an other PC, just took the whole installed game folder and paste it in my Seven.

-The nbawin.exe and nbawin.icd are uni-processor compatible thanks to the "processor.bat" trick seen elsewhere here. Don't know if it has something to do with the game working on Seven-64 but at least it avoids graphical problems ingame when it works.

-Regedit to add the keys and values of the game seen on my XP to Seven-64. It is necessary to reproduce the registry keys of the game to get the 3D Setup to work later. If you can get the installation setup to work, it'll be done by installing the game. But in my case I had to reproduce manually the different keys and values from my XP as the 16bits setup doesn't launch, so if it also your case you need the game installed elsewhere.

-Set the compatibility mode of nbawin.exe to Windows 2000.

-I think the most important part : the 3D Setup. I took the dx7z.dll from NBA Live 2001 and renamed it dx6z.dll for NBA Live 2000, the trick that worked on my XP doesn't work for me on Seven-64... But I took the 3D setup from FIFA 2002 and changed the 3dsetup.ini's first line to get the Setup to aim at the NBA live 2000 game in the registry instead of FIFA 2002 (that's why you need to add the game to the registry before). So I could take benefit of the FIFA 2002 options for NBA Live 2000 (screen sizes, triple buffer, etc.) and no stack tace with D3D render. It doesn't work with later versions of FIFA's 3D setups.

-And of course you still need the CD to play the game. In my case, at this point, nbawin.exe launch the game and I can play with good graphics, and even the videos are clean, what wasn't the case on my XP. So it's even better.

I'll look again to verify if everything I said is correct, but as I remember it's what I've done to get it running on my Seven-64. Hope it helps.

Good to know, thanks for posting.

Hi

Great news.

I will try run the game on a Mac Pro with Parallells & Win 7 later.

Just need to buy a 3rd Mac Pro first.



BTW, I run my nba 2000 game via Virtual CD 6 on Win XP right now, because the cd drive is not working
so good on that PC.
