The “Black Screen” Fix (dgVoodoo2)

(This is the technical magic. Users love this.)

“If you hear the intro music but see a pitch-black screen, your graphics card is too new for the game. You need to ‘trick’ the game using a free tool called dgVoodoo2.

Step-by-Step Fix:

1. Download dgVoodoo2 (latest version) from the developer’s website.
2. Open the zip file. Go to the MS > x86 folder.
3. Copy these files: D3D9.dll, D3D8.dll, and D3DImm.dll.
4. Paste them into your EA Sports Cricket 2005 installed folder (where the .exe is).
5. Run the game. The black screen will be gone!”

Fix “Neon Grass” / Graphics Glitch

“If the field looks like static noise or the players are invisible:

1. Go to My Documents > EA Sports Cricket 2005.
2. Delete the file named user.dat (or profile.dat).
3. This resets the video settings to default, often fixing the texture glitches.”
