NBA for Windows Vista

Postby Pirrimarzon on Sat Apr 05, 2008 6:38 am

Hi everybody,

Does anybody know which NBA Live works under Windows Vista? I've tried 08 and it doesn't work. Then I realized that game info in nba-live.com showed that it only works under XP or 2000, so...

Thanks

I believe you can run Live 08 on Vista if you use XP compatability mode.

Vista is listed as one of the supported operating systems for NBA Live 08.

If you have a look at this list, NBA Live 08 isn't placed on it:

Only Live 2003, but it's quite old to find updated rosters for it.

NBA Live 08's specs as listed on the box and in the instruction manual indicate that it supports Vista.

Maybe my NBA Live 08 doesn't work on my PC because it's corrupted or anything. Thanks for the information

08 works on my Vista x64... 07 worked as well, I don't now wat's the problem. I don't use any Compatibility settings.

The only problem is: when U exit the game it won't run again until reboot or destroying the process in Task Manager.

I've only tried to install it by video-game renting shop, never unauthorized copies, so I don't know what happens. No NBA Live version works in my PC!!
