The screenshots should be in the My Documents/NHL 2004 Root folder. If F12 fails try printscreen or an program that takes screens. Or if you have it steam. |

Yeah, that's why I use the Snipping Tool built into Windows 10. It allows you to click and drag any part of your screen and as soon as you let go of the button, it turns your selected area into a screenshot which you can then save. It's a few extra clicks than just F12, but accomplishes the same result. |

That's right! ![]() I remember last year when I upgraded from XP to Win 7. There was some issue with installing it, some file I had to download from this site (I don't remember the name but I have it on a backup drive), otherwise no problem. What did anooy me then was that my FIFA 09 game became unplayable. I haven't solved that problem yet. Next time I change my OS, then I will keep an old computer with Windows 7 or Windows XP. It might be a good idea to keep playing this awesome game! However, I have a feeling that when I will upgrade to Windows 10, the clever guys on this forum have solved all the problems! After all those years with NHL 2004 and regualr visits to this forum, I do have a certain faith in you all who arefans of this game!

Microsoft does a pretty good job when it comes to backwards compatibility with core Windows libraries. What you generally have to worry about is driver support since the game relies on deprecated audio (Dsound), video (D3D8), control (DInput) and network (DPlay) libraries. DirectPlay is an optional feature in Windows 10 and may need to be manually activated. |

Just want to let the members know on this forum that i installed NHL 2004 on Win 10 without any issues. BigGui, Fshed, NHLview all seem to work fine also. I am able to use the print screen F12 without any problems. All in all i can say NHL 2004 on Win 10 is a go on my end. Thanks Vod keep up the great work i can't wait what the future holds for us NHL2004 users. |

I'm doing this slowly as i hardly have time, but so far i was able to install the base game with no issues, once i right-clicked and did the compatibility thing. We'll see how the rest goes! |

So I just have base game installed and went to start a Dynasty and a Season and game crashed. Immediately it says "nhl2004.exe has stopped working." Thoughts? |

No. It's just plain ol' NHL 2004. No mods. Same thing happened with Season mode and Dynasty mode. For dynasty it lets me set it up but when I get to the last step it did it, and now when I try to get into it at all. season mode was from the very beginning of trying to start one. |

That will not work. Mod interface is needed in order to play the game in newer than IE8 versions. Why would you want to play the vanilla game anyway? You can't even get a widescreen for that. |

Oh. Interesting. Thanks. I haven't had time to fully update and install everything on the new machine yet, and felt like giving it whirl. Exhibition works fine so I figured I was ok. But thanks. And it works with my widescreen monitor, just slightly stretched but not bad. But now that I know about the launcher and the options I might have to give that a try. |

I tried NHL04 on my laptop with updated Win 10 and it all worked fine. No problems at all. |

I also just installed the game on windows 10 and everything seems to work perfectly except for one thing... I can't click the exit button on the main menu to close the game, so I have to bring up task manager every time to do so. Is anyone else having this problem? Is there some other way I can close the game as simply clicking the escape button doesn't seem to work? |
