The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft NBA Full Court Press for Windows, version 1.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When starting NBA Full Court Press, you may receive the following error if a
conflict with the sound or video card exists:

  Invalid Page Fault in Kernel32.dll at <memory address>

RESOLUTION
==========

Possible resolutions to this error are to get updated drivers for the sound card
and/or video card. Also try reinstalling Windows over the top of itself and
installing the latest version of DirectX.

One resolution Microsoft has found is to disable the sound card driver.

NOTE: After disabling the sound card you will no longer have sounds in Windows
and you will receive the error message: "Cannot initialize sound system" when
launching NBA Full Court Press. However, you will be able to play the game.

FURTHER TROUBLESHOOTING
-----------------------

If disabling the sound card driver solves the problem, there could possibly be a
hardware or software conflict. For more information on troubleshooting hardware
configuration problems, see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge

1.0.
