I have a problem Dynasty mode and season mode. When I try to start the season or dynasty mode so will open a window that says NHL2004.exe stopped working. Mode is installed auto installer program and I use arena lite.viv file. I am using windows 8, and I have removed IE completely. Is IE 8 required the operation of the game or what else could be wrong?

P.S I'm sorry for my poor English language skills, but hopefully someone gets my text clear. :D

You can't remove Internet Explorer from your system. Well... you can... but that requires a full format of your hard drives.

You either have IE9 or IE8. Period.

You have to install IE8 in order to get the game working.

IE8 can't be installed in Win8 IIRC. Try to install XP as virtual machine and run the game there.

I have this script error when trying to start a new dynasty mode. I have IE 8, run as administrator and have NHL as an exception in my antivirus. As well, I have it located in D:NHL 2004. Could there be a problem with Java or flash player?

Here's your problem code

Code:
 

function CreateLeagueInfo(LeagueName)
{
var ForWriting = 2;
var TristateFalse = 0;
myActiveXObject = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
myActiveXObject.CreateTextFile("fe/nhl/CreateLeagueInfo.txt");
   file = myActiveXObject.GetFile("fe/nhl/CreateLeagueInfo.txt");
   text = file.OpenAsTextStream(ForWriting, TristateFalse);
   text.WriteLine(LeagueName);
   text.Close();  
}


For some reason the game can't write CreateLeagueInfo.txt file into your harddrive.

Probably some kind of permission issue. Is your D: drive some kind of system/backup drive?

No its not, its a 1TB HDD. I have windows obviously installed on C, which is an SSD. Could it be possible that some files are on C and some are on D?

Do you have file "CreateLeagueInfo.txt" in your d:\nhl 2004\fe\nhl folder?

I've seen this issue before but I don't remember what fixed it. It's some kind of file write permission issue.

EDIT: Yeah, I have that file.

As well, I am interested in knowing why when I start the game it takes about 60 seconds of white screen to bring me to the main menu?


Thanks bud

No idea about the white screen. Nobody has reported that in a long time.

Try disabling your antivirus entirely. Then make sure CreateLeagueInfo.txt and other txt-files aren't set as "read only".

You can also try running the game (NHL 2004.EXE) in different compatibility modes.

That's all I can come up with.

For some reason NHL has started to crash whenever I finish the first playoff game. (Dynasty) Playing as Chicago against Sharks if that helps. It basically says that NHL has stopped working.

Running Windows 7 64bit with IE8.


I think I got this problem earlier, but didn't find anyway to fix it. Is my savegame corrupt?
