true the gameplay was excellent. (Lol, i still play it, and i no longer play c2k7)sami007 said:ha i got it on ebay...works BEAUTIFULLY! it amazes me how none of the games after this are this good.
OffStump said:Why the hell does the normal version work and not sold-out?? What's the difference? It's the same sodding game, isn't it??
Last thing I'm gonna try is install game using old pc on win 98 and copy it across to new machine, download patch and then if it doesn't work, sod it. I'm not gonna waste a whole day faffing around trying to get an 8 year old game to work.
?
I.e. copy over the nets2 folder twice and rename one of them to 'nets' as the nets folder from the CD won't copyI downloaded and tried to different windows xp patches neither of them worked for me.
Heres how i got it install, copy all the files off the cd to a place on your hard drive. The only file you wont be able to copy over is program/nets. So dont copy that one, when u have copied the remaining files, copy the program/nets2 folder and put it into program nets folder. then install. All should work fine.

I think there was the odd sound one too, not sure
Don't know about the 2 joypads though as only ever played with one
!!AT LAST: A REAL SOLUTION WHEN INSTALL FAILS AT 96%ish!!:
Much fiddling and I've done it at last!!
READ ALL OF THIS CAREFULLY!!
This is where the problem is:
D:/Program/Nets/practice
What you have to do is copy EVERYTHING into a file on your hard drive (OR to a new writable CD) and then run the installer from there.
You may have some problems because it cannot read the files mentioned above ... so you may have to do a few files at a time.
BECAUSE IT CANNOT READ THE ABOVE FILES, YOU CAN DO THIS:
Copy the files from /Program/Nets2/practice
into: /Program/Nets/practice
(COPY ALL FILES FROM 'Program/NETS2' TO 'Program/NETS')
Maybe the nets practice session will have problems (??) ... BUT THE INSTALLER DOES COMPLETE PERFECTLY...
Then all you have to do is download the right XP fix from here:

(I used the 'Software' one)
AND THE GAME RUNS AT LAST!!!!!!!!
HURRAH!!
