NFL Fever 2000

Teengator
I already ordered NFL Fever 2000 (a bit early, it would seem) and I'm wondering if anyone has had success playing it on Windows 2000? I saw that sometimes fiddling with registries will help. Has anyone tried that? Thanks.

Bought the game, won't install. Is it/Will it be W2k compatible? Has anyone had luck installing it yet? One can not be betrayed if one does not have any people.
