click on the user.ini file in the cricket 2002 directory
Please check whether the directories are entered correctly

[Sound]
InstallLevel = 1
CDDriveLetter = E:
NetworkRootPath = root Directory

[System]
RootPath = Directory/data

If this is already correct
please tell me which is the directx version
If it is dx8.1 ore something , please install dx9
Even if u have dx9 already , reinstall it
Try uninstalling the previous version with a software like directx buster
It will work
The same thing happened to me twice and this solution did work
Please reply

You may be clicking on the wrong icon, If you start the game from the disk it won't work unless you install it.
If you trying doing what I just said you will get the EA Sports symbol and the game won't run.

Make sure it's installed properly. I have ME and it works fine.

Have you followed the instructions properly above by Adi,

Maybe You should check troubleshooting in the manual and that might fix your problem.
Update your video driver perhaps. Maybe you didn't install it properly and deleted some files from the captures folder.

That's all from me.

I have intel 82810 too and it works with both ME and xp
though on xp performance will be little poorer than in ME
Install the latest drivers for intel 82810
Please click on run
type dxdiag
and enter
On the 1st screen click on save all information and attach the dxdiag.txt file in the next post
we can troubleshoot

Do u already have dx9 installed
If so i suggest u this software
Dxbuster
go to google and search for dxbuster downloads
Download this software and uninstall dx9 completely
Make sure that u have the dx9 installer with u otherwise u might land into trouble
If u don`t have the dx9 installer , then i suggest u not to uninstall dx9
If u can download dx9 , then good luck to u

I had the same probl;em and first i had dx8.1 with me
Becoz i got the newer version of dx , it got installed without any problem
The problem with u is that , u already have the higher version and dx wont overwrite the previous installation of dx bcoz it is already installed
But do make sure that u have an installer of dx9 either by downloading or thruu other sources
Best of Luck
Try reinstalling the game if u have a legal copy though !!
DO u have the game cdrom
Then totally uninstall and then reinstall

Cheers Buddy,

I could figure it out from DXdiag that i had some Registry keys missing. I have fixed my problems and now i can play in both OS, thanks for your help
