I just had the same problem yesterday and I've been looking through the newsgroups ( http://www.groups.google.com) and I found out this web page: http://w1.112.telia.com/~u11203606/cmronw2k.htm.
It works great, thanks to Krister Brus
Have a nice day,
Dan

because cmr1 does not play in win2k on my machine anyway, i assumed it should have been cmr2. good question though.... is it cmr1 or 2?
the compatibility list shows cmr1 as a no go at first, but later on the page there is a workaround
1) Windows 2000 patch (from http://w1.112.telia.com/~u11203606/cmronw2k.htm ) or
2) To get this working under windows 2000, get the latest app compatability update from windows update, create a shortcut to Rally.exe, goto the shortcut properties, then the Compatability tab, select Windows 98 Compability Layer. Run the game from the shortcut you just made.
hope it works for you!

In the FAQ, there's mention of this. Try disabling "EmulateJoystick" under fixes. See FAQ for more details.

I 've tried to download the ACT 1.5 and during install i get the following message
ERROR 1901
Error attempting to read from source installation database C:/WINTT/Installer/2551f1.msi
RETRY CANCEL
What seems to be wrong ? The game runs since i got the small zip file from http://w1.112.telia.com/~u11203606/cmronw2k.htm. but the steering wheel fails to work in the above game.
