i think u guys in this thread dont need any updated drivers for nfs 2 se. i had the same prob.-the game wood not start (i have xp sp2).then i right clicked the nfs icon on desktop,selected properties-compatibility-then select 'run this program for 'win 2000' & select 'run in 256 colors'.
if 'win 2000' selection doesnt work then try 'win 95'/'win 98'/'nt'.ALSO MAKE SURE UR NFS CD IS FREE OF DIRT & LINT.
Close any unnecessary programs like ram optimizers etc in background.if u r using nvidia or ati grafix card then set antialiasing & anisotropic filtering to 'application controlled'.
i think u should install xp sp2 from microsoft website.y r u still using sp1?? sp2 is better & will improve xp gaming performance.
GOOD LUCK!!
