Double-click on the icon for the version of NBA Live you want to run.

NBA D3D            for Direct3D mode
NBA Voodoo1        for Voodoo and Rush cards
NBA Voodoo2 & 3    for Voodoo2, Voodoo3, and Banshee cards
NBA Software       for software rendered mode

If you are using a 3D accelerator card, NBA Live 2000 supports high resolution display 
modes and high resolution textures.  Both of these options are in the details menu under
"Display Settings", which you get to by using the button marked "Gameplay".  The texture
resolution is controlled with the "Texture Detail" button.

In order to use the "high" or "maximum" texture detail options, your 3D card needs to 
have enough RAM on board and be able to support 512x512 textures.  For the "maximum" 
option, your 3D card will need to have at least 32 Megabytes of RAM.  Your display
resolution will also limit how high the texture detail can be set.  With higher 
resolutions, less memory is available for textures.

If your game looks blurry, try turning up the "texture sharpness" in the "display 
settings" section of the details menu.  Make sure to turn it up just a little bit at 
a time, looking at the game each time you change it.  You should reach a point where 
turning it up higher doesn't make any difference to near objects, which is where you 
should stop.  If objects further in the distance start to "sparkle", then you've 
definitely gone too far.

Your monitor may not support some of the resolutions that your video card may be able 
to display. NBA detects the resolutions that your video card can display, not your 
monitor. Check your monitor manual for it's available display resolutions or attempt 
to change your Windows desktop resolution to the same resolution to want to achieve. 
If you change the resolution in the game via the Display Settings menu and the display
becomes scrambled and illegible, your monitor probably does not support that resolution. 

In the details menu, pressing the ESC key will undo any changes you have just made. 
This is useful in case you change something that makes your display unreadable, such 
as setting a display resolution that your monitor doesn't support, or turning your 
gamma down so low that the screen is black.
