How to play NASCAR Racing 2002 Season Windows
The game with patches and NoCD has been tested on Windows 7 64-bit, works fine
Install & play guide:
- Mount the disc image. You will need the utility for mounting disc image files, like WinCDEmu, UltraISO, Alcohol 52%/Alcohol 120% or Daemon Tools Lite
- Install the game. Use serial key
TAF5-TEB2-XYJ2-ZAM7-5553
- Once you installed the game - install both patches
- After that install NoCD (simply copy NR2002.exe from the archive and put it into directory with installed game, replacing original NR2002.exe)
- Open the directory with the game and find Madden08.exe and mainapp.exe. Right click on both exe-files - Properties - Compatibility - Set "Run this app in compatibility mode with Windows XP" and "Run as administrator"
- Launch the game and play. If the game doesn't work in compatibility mode with Windows XP - try to launch it in compatibility mode with other version of Windows (98, 2000 or Vista)
Notes:
- If the installation doesn't start - try to launch Setup.exe in compatibility mode with old version of Windows (98, 2000 or XP)
- The game works on DirectX 8, so if you're using Windows 8, 8.1, 10 or 11 - you need to enable DirectPlay: Go to Control Panel, and select 'Programs'. Select 'Turn Windows features on and off', click on 'Legacy Components' and check the box 'DirectPlay'. Select OK, once the installation is done, restart your computer
- It is recommended to install all versions of Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable for the correct work of the game
- Also it is recommended to install RAD Video Tools and K-Lite Codec Pack for the correct work of in-game videos
- The game is using DirectX 8 and should work on any graphics card that support DirectX 9. But if you get error at launch - you can use d3d8to9 wrapper, it is simple dll-file that adapts DirectX 8 games to DirectX 9 renderer. Simply put d3d8.dll next to NR2002.exe
- If you have troubles with launch of the game on modern systems - run the game with dgVoodoo. Just copy dll-files from the MS/x86 folder, dgVoodooCpl.exe and dgVoodoo.conf to the game folder, then run the game from NR2002.exe.
- Also, with dgVoodoo you can play the game with anti-aliasing and texture filtering - run dgVoodooCpl.exe, open DirectX tab and select the setting you want. After that click "Apply" to save settings, close dgVoodooCpl and run the game from NR2002.exe. The game with dgVoodoo has been tested on Windows 7 64-bit, works fine

The DRM check is basic, when I'm trying to reset Windows by keeping my files and after then, opening the game, it prompts a message how the game is a incomplete installation installing through directory, when I click OK, it exits. Resetting Windows will also delete this registry for installing the game. When using the no CD check does not fix. Please, does anyone have any tips on how I can fix it?
