Thread: EA Sports NHL '95-2000 with Windows XP

Buy a newer version of the games. 2003 or 2004 are at very low prices at
Best-Buy and others computer big box stores in the old game section and save
yourself a big headache.

check www.ntcompatible.com to see if the games you have work in Windows
XP.

EA Sports games are some of the worst games to get working in Windows
XP due mostly to EA's terrible graphics setup utility.....but they can
be made to work with a little work.
