I have a serious problem with my NHL 04. It won't start anymore. I'm referring to my slightly modified vanilla game here which I play with the CD in the CD player. What's happening is: I insert the CD and click on the NHL 04 icon and nothing is happening. It is dead! I played the game two days ago and everything was fine. I know that there has been some automatic update from Microsoft yesterday but can it affect this game? or what is it? I've tried to re-start the computer and still the same problem. What can I do to solve this? |

Did you try with a no-cd patch. I tried it right now and it goes white for about a minute or so then it goes to the main menu with no title screen. |

Nice to see you DSgamby. Always there to rescue me! I might look like a total idiot here but where can I find that no-CD patch and if I install it, is there anything that I have to be cautious about, like if it erases rosters or anything like that? |

Nice to see you too. It comes with the interface here or you can get it online through various sites like http://www.gamecopyworld.com/games/pc_nhl_2004.shtml It won't erase anything. The only thing it will do is not have you find the CD when you want to play it. |

Would it be a good idea to download the interface as well? |

@King Cobra: Good to see you back. ![]() Vanilla NHL 2004 doesn't work in modern computers (post IE8). Our interface cracks it and it works. Your disc might be bad. I sent you a PM. |

Nice to see you too Trent! I don't think it's the disc because I played the game two days ago and it worked fine. But I have a backup and I will try that one first. |

Yes, get the interface along with all the other downloads. It is worth it. |

Where can I get the actual interface and will it replace any rosters, uniforms or so? |

My antivirus program stopped the download, reporting it as malware! |

Sorry to say but your antivirus is obviously a piece of shit. ![]() Switch to Panda. No more false alerts and bs. You can temporarily disable the antivirus. Interface.exe is not malware. |

I managed to download the file thanks to your instructions. As for antivirus, I've been using Avast for a couple of years. It has worked fine but this problem was a surprise. As for the interface, I have to bring up an old issue which I've been thinking about: Is there some way to add own music to what's available with the interface? Many years ago I found a program called "wimpditt" to add a couple of tracks (like ACDC's "TNT" to the original playlist. But I couldn't remove any of the tracks which came with the game, just add a couple of more songs. And I'm beginning to get really tired of some of the original tracks from the game and would like to remove them but at the same time add a few of my own favorites too. Is that possible? What about the European leagues? Will they be affected by the new interface? |
