Need for Speed 2000
Ok. . I got this game running only works Compatibilty Mode 98/ME. But who cares, as long as it works? Well, it doesn't work right for the most part for me and others I know. When running NFS, I cannot ALT-TAB to go back to the desktop.

Well, it doesn't work right for the most part for me and others I know. When running NFS, I cannot ALT-TAB to go back to the desktop. Everytime I do, NFS crashes. There is also a little frame rate problem going on too, not too noticable, but enough to make me wonder. I have 3 other friends running XP and NFS, and they have the same EXACT problem. Cannot ALT-TAB while the game is running. Every other game I have tried, I can ALT-TAB with no problems, BUT I have not had to run any other games in Compatibility mode. Maybe that is the cause????

I don't know if it will help, but try removing compatibility mode and using the file I posted in this thread: http://www.ntcompatible.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=19258
It is a more proper fix...

i'm running winxp pro.. i was able to run the game without using the compatiblity mode.. the games crashed on me as well while i try to alt-tab during a race, but it doesn't crash when i do a alt-tab in the game menu.. i've experience the same problem in win2k as well.. try not to alt-tab during a race, do it in the game menu after the race..
btw, for some reason, nfs5 always crashes when i race in normandie(the game was running stable on all the other tracks).. anyone know any fix for this track?
