NBA Live 2000 Multiplayer in Windows 2000

This is a discussion about NBA Live 2000 Multiplayer in Windows 2000 in the Windows Games category; I'm trying to setup a multiplayer game between two PCs using Network Setup or Direct Internet Setup. When trying Network Setup, the two PCs can communicate through chat but when one hosts a game, the other cannot see it in the game list.

I'm trying to setup a multiplayer game between two PCs using Network Setup or Direct Internet Setup. When trying Network Setup, the two PCs can communicate through chat but when one hosts a game, the other cannot see it in the game list. When trying Direct Internet Setup, nothing also happens(one is just "waiting for player..." and other is "connecting...").
The two PCs are both running Win2K and residing in the same domain in the LAN.
I also tried using one PC with Win2K and the other with Win98. I was only able to setup a multiplayer game with the Win98 as host in a Direct Internet Setup. Anything else doesn't work.
Please help. I'm very frustrated in trying to figure it out and in changing whatever I could just to solve this.

OP
an Op in another forum told me that he encountered the exact same problem. i guess NBA Live 2000 is just not NT-Compatible, at least in LAN Multiplayer.
oh well, at least multiplayer in Diablo2 and Half-life:CStike is working. maybe i'll just do a Win2K/Win98 dual-boot setup if i want to play NBA Live 2000 multiplayer. i hope Whistler would prove to be much more compatible for games designed for Win9x.
pretty obvious from the lack of replies/views that no one plays NBA Live 2000 multiplayer that much in here. but it's ok. it's not that popular as other multiplayer games anyway.
