"NHL 2004.exe has stopped working"

I give up. I have no idea where the problem is. I tried to install it with Avira completely turned off. Also tried that trick with intro.html. Since crash report is always saying about browserengine_pc_z.dll problem, I believe it has something to do with Internet explorer. Last thing I had in my mind is, that it is maybe caused by some addon or plugin or something in IE. So I tried to disable or uninstall all of them I could find, but the problem is still here.

Do you know the offset of the crash?

Have you tried manually registering BrowserEngine_pc_z.dll?

@Lukas33: You have WIN 7 - why don't you just upgrade to IE 10 or have you overseen it ? What is your OS language ?

If you have WIN 7 - which version exactly ?

If someone have the same WIN 7 Version like maybe he can send you his browsere....dll

Thanks for suggestion, did not try it before. But it did not help.

@stlouis26 OS is in Slovak language.
I am using IE only like 5 times a year, to view Cadastral maps of Slovakia. Their program does not support IE newer than 8, that is why I still have it. I have tried to install IE 10 only to see if it helps, but installer says, it is not supported by my OS version. So I installed IE 9, still the same problem though.

I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit version.

Remi had the same problem (I guess) - http://z15.invisionfree.com/NHL04Rebuilt/i...p?showtopic=911 I have asked him how he solved it. He said he had to reinstall Windows. But he had also problems with other games. While in my case, everything else works OK.

Greg83 sent me his BrowserEngine_pc_z.dll, but still the same problem. Maybe it is Windows related, like in Remi s case and reinstall would help. But I do not want to reinstall it now, since I reinstalled it in august, like I do every year.
Also I just noticed, that League Loader does not work either.

I think, I will get back to NHL 09 for a while. Defeault geameplay looks a bit weird after years with NHL 04 rebuilt. :D Hopefully there are some mods which would help.

Thanks for trying to help guys.

Hi guys,

I read all about your Community Patch and really got hooked on this instantly - bought a second hand copy of the game - installed it...
... and it crashes hardcore.

And I've tried everything. It crashes in Vanilla with the CD inside, with No-CD patch, with your Community Patch + 1.04 NoCD exe. Unfortunately I had Explorer 9 installed, but from what I've learned so far, that is a non-issue because of trent's update.

So the "ntdll.dll" still kills the game right on start BEFORE any intro video is shown, so maybe the mpeg codec is not there but I simply don't know what to instal exactly. I am a little bit disappointed right now, because this seems to occur rather often and no one has reliable solutions for it - or my research was just not successful enough.

So, if anyone has some sort of advice I would be very happy :D

best regards

Hi Bountrix. Welcome!

Vanilla NHL2004 doesn't work. It doesn't have support for current IE versions.

You have to install the mod's interface and "crack" it that way.

Give it a shot and report back.

Hi trent,

thx for your reply.

I've now installed IE10 for my Win7 64bit, retried and ... crash. "ntdll.dll".
Installed the NHL2013/14 Website Interface, just copied the whole thing into my f/nhl04/ directory and still crashes because of my beloved dll.

Thx for your advice, but something has still to be updated on my pc to run the show :/

Try googling with the string "ntdll.dll error".

The first thing I would try is manually registering BrowserEngine_pc_z.dll and becontrols_pc_z.dll. If it still crashes, try putting DisableIntro = 1 in launcher.ini and use launcher.exe to run the game. If that doesn't work, then my guess is it would be a driver issue.
