NBA Live 2001 Still Crashing

[Deviant 0]

Greetings,

I have installed Win2K ACT and Whistler ACT 2.0. Still am having no

luck with NBA Live 2001.

Got the Spanish version of the exe. Still drops me to the desktop when I execute

nbawin.exe

I get the intro EA Logo then

the copyright screen and then it drops me back @ the desktop.

Any ideas?

 

I've read the previous NBA thread,but nothing helps.

Thank you..

Have you done a full install?

 

Have you got the spanish EXE?

 

Have you tried the German EXE?

 

Try these two and let me know.

Hi Miku,

 

Yes I tried both versions of the EXE file and full installation too.

But I see no difference between starting NBA through normal starting or WACT2 starting.The game always drops me back @ the desktop after the copyright screen.

 

I have Win2000 PRO + SP2 installed

Tried to run the game in XP 2462 - there were no problems to run it.

The system settings (drivers...) were the same as in W2000.

 

But I'd like to use the game in W2000.

One question :When you create a shortcut of NBA on the desktop,can you see the "run in compatibility mode" tab in the shortcut properties?

It works only in XP for me...

Hi,

 

Well you should see the shortcut properties in Windows 2000 too.

 

Here is how to enable it. Type the the following in Run

 

regsvr32 %systemroot%\apppatch\slayerui.dll

 

Then Shorcut Properties > Compatibility > choose Windows 98 Compatibility Layer..

 

That all!

 

Done!

OK but there is only Win95 and WinNT4 SP5 layer....

BUT when I install WACT2 the file is missing

 

slayerui.dll

After installing Whistler Toolkit,

 

Install this

 

http://download.microsoft.com/download/win2000platform/Install/1.7/NT5/EN-US/appupd.exe

 

Then Restart. Then everything should work fine.
