Have you tried Windows 98 via a virtual machine? |

Actually I haven't. Only XP, and then NHL 2000 crashed. I think I'm gonna try it in the near future. |

Oh, and I forgot to say that I got NHL 2000 nearly work on 64bit OS. I got in the section where game is asking disk, but I wasn't able to get further. I don't remember how I did it. edit. Yeah! I found patch for this game and got in that 'disk asking' section. Let's see I would get further.

Yeah! I got the game finally work! God that game is so much fun! NHL 2000 is pretty realistic imo when put hitting low. And cut-scenes are great. If you want know how I got it work, just ask.

Well, I've only got this work on 32bit OS. When I transfered installed NHL 2000 to my 64bit OS, the game says that install is not complete or something like that. I'm pretty sure about that if you can skip that thing, you'll be able to play NHL 2000 on 64bit system. But here's the way how I got it work on 32bit OS: 1. Install the whole NHL 2000. If you don't have the original game, download the game from here: http://uloz.to/xVkrdRd/nhl-2000-rar There's possibly 'I'm not a robot/bot' test. Pass it, click 'Stahnout' Skip another test and start the download. 2. You need somekind of a image file mounter if you don't have the game disk. Download DAEMON Tools, PowerIso or any other program that can mount image files. 3. After installing the game, you see there's no any kind of a sign about that NHL 2000 doesn't run. I saw that in Task Manager NHL 2000 is running only a while and the it shuts down. And after that I saw that Windows Error Report is running too. That means the game has crashed. 4. Solution for the crash is a patch. You can download it from here: http://www.fileplanet.com/29723/20000/file...NHL-2000-Update . Run it and if I'm right, you need to select the game location (place where all the game files are). 5. Now go and download unsafedisk. Download it from this link: http://nastydesign.free.fr/interface.php?page=safedisc Big Thanks for pastek17 for the link. Try to find 'unsafedisk.exe from that page click it and the download will start. 6. When the download is finished. Run the program as Administrator. Choose 'Decrypt game', find nhl2k.icd file from NHL 2000 game folder, double-click that file and the program starts decrypting the game.Then message 'job done icd decrypted' appears. Click ok and close the program. 7. Now try to find from the game folder file named 'testme.exe' replace 'nhl2k.exe' with this file by nameing 'testme.exe to 'nhl2k.exe'. First you have to delete the original 'nhl2k.exe' file and then rename 'testme.exe' file. Now it should run like it should be running. Game Crack doesn't work since the working .exe is found. You can get NHL 2000 work without disk by changing registery settings.

No problem. Did you get it work on 32bit or 64bit Windows?

OH MY GOD GUYS! I got NHL 2000 working on my Windows 8.1 64-bit. I spent a huge amount of hours of trying different things and it turned out that VMWare with Windows XP Professional works. So you need to install VMWare Player to your computer and then install the XP Professional to it. Then you have to download VMWare Tools via VMWare Player and install it to XP you just installed. Then you just install NHL in it and it works! only 800x600 for me but I don't really care if the screen size is so small. Give it a go and try it yourself. I'm just so excited that I may have forgot something about how I got it to work but I think its right. -Vilzu

Hi guys! I wrote a tutorial on how to run NHL 2000 on Windows 8 & 10 without a virtual machine. I'm looking for some guinea pigs to try it out and let me know if it works for them. ![]() NHL 2000 64 bit install guide I have write-ups on quite a few of the old hockey games if anyone is interested.
