well I don't know what to tell you, I mean the game runs fine in win2k/whistler/9x all on my machine, don't ask how or why, it just does
but maybe make sure that you have the latest video card drivers and BIOS, etc. Make sure all patches are downloaded. And even if you have to or want to, install the latest DX8 beta.

MAC when I saw your post, I thought finally I'm going to play this f'ing game.
Uninstalled and cleaned the registry. Re-installed the game, did exactly what you said. Still get the "EA Sports Its So Lame" deal and BAM its back to the desktop.
Curses.....foiled again.
