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

- NBA D3D for Direct3D mode

- 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.
