Need For Speed II SE PC

The second Need For Speed game for PC. This is the Special Edition of that game, also known as the "Second Edition". The game is in .bin/.cue format for maximum compatibility with image burning programs. Unlike the first Need For Speed game, this runs on Windows XP and Vista without needing an external program.

Thanks. Memories...

Awesome file!
=========
A million thanks ngp2789!!
-Works perfectly
-Full version of the game, includes all videos of the original (the video for the isdera car isn't available in the original too)
-This an exact, one to one copy of the original. There are other copies of this game also available on torrent, but most of them had many videos removed to reduce size to 91MB, and some others have custom autorun and installers
-Works rather well under xp/vista (no need to use any compatibility mode or patches)

kurkosdr (2009-05-04)

@ngp2789 Yes me too. With modern bandwith, it's a pity to remove content from a game to save 15 minutes of downloading time.
The only problem I have is that it doesn't run on my vista laptop (vista 32bit, 1GB ram, 945 chipset, Core Duo 2GHz, ATI Radeon X1600). But it works flawlessly on my old desktop (xp sp2, 512MB ram, 865 chipset, pentium4 , NVIDIA Geforce FX5200.) But this is an issue of the game itself. From what I read on other forums, NFS II SE doesn't cope well with modern computers (either running xp or vista, original disc or torrent copy).
In case you are experiencing problems running this game (such as the game doesn't launch or throws weird error messages at you) you can try the Microsoft Application Compatibility Tool 5.0. Go here:

and here:

and follow the instructions. If all else fails, try VMware as a last resort.
The above info applies for both the original disc and the torrent copy, this is not a problem of the torrent, but the game itself, I just posted the solution here for the downloaders' convinience

Thank You! Brings back good memories. However ((It Won't Work)) if you have the 64-bit version of Vista. Most new PC's have it.

jonnkev (2009-06-13)

Has any body had luck with ngp2789 method ? I followed the instructions and i didn't work. The initial screen will pop up but the game won't install. It says not compatible with 64-bit or something.

kurkosdr (2009-07-10)

@ deskpro256
Old games like this don't have any kind of copy protection, so you don't need a crack that willpass copy protection ;-)
If you are lucky enough to have a compatible PC, you will be able to enjoy it just like the original, without the need to apply any crack. i did on my old pc!

vuffelivov (2009-08-03)

you forgot to say there is two icons for power iso. When install do not use nomber 2 it's nomber 1 then burn to cd or dvd install.
Long proces it's not working for me so i have delete need for speed ll se after had dl toolkit and glwoodoo1 not function for me if other want to dl up to you maybe it's better to find another gameupload i will do that.............

rebelravindra (2011-10-15)

mounted the .bin file with deamon tools...
later i installed it.. i double clicked the shortcut on desktop...
but its not working

Shah_Jahan (2011-10-29)

This game does NOT install on 64-bit windows, but can be played!
Do NOT mount the image. Instead open the NFSIISE.bin file in PowerISO and extract ALL the files in C:\Need For Speed II SE\ and rename the file INSTALL.NFS to INSTALL.WIN
Download and Extract the contents of the nfs2se_patch folder in C:\Need For Speed II SE\
Download and extract the contents of the dgVoodoo1.50Beta2 folder in C:\Need For Speed II SE\
Open dgVoodooSetup.exe. Change to DOS and disable the option "Working in VDD mode" in the "Windows XP Options for DOS". You can configure it to put the quality you want, then close it to save your changes.
Now open the program dgVoodoo.exe ( the other one, not the setup) and it will say that it is ready to run DOS based glide applications. Leave it as it is (DONT CLOSE IT!) and Run the NFS2EA.EXE from the game folder. Done, it will surely work .
PS: You will need to mount the image to make it work!

rebelravindra (2011-12-20)

@shah_jahan:
My system is windows XP SP3... 32bit OS...
i downloaded the torrent, using Daemon tools i mounted .Cue/.bin file...
i installed the game... i double clicked on desktop shortcut...
but nothing s happening there...

ayeshahrg (2012-02-27)

Hello. Please help me with this thing. i downloaded this torrent and i have got 3 files. i have got Vlc media file (.bin),. What shall i do now? Please help!!!

4scoresn7yrsago (2012-04-20)

lol it's funny, it works on 7 32-bit but not on xpsp3 32-bit.

FlashyVox (2012-05-30)

For all of you who are having problem launching this, the explanation is in faulty shortcut that created automatically on desktop. U need to go in to game directory and manually find file called "nfs2sen' and copy it and paste a shortcut on dekstop. After this the game will launch. The original shortcut works with 95,98,2000 only.

rebelravindra (2012-06-27)

@FlashyVox : i did that.. still not working...
dont know whats the problem.. please help me out !!

neel101 (2012-07-24)

well....downloading the files....not so positive reviews.....will update if it is working on windows 7 32bit.......24-7-2012

neel101 (2012-07-25)

i am not able to post comment

superbikal (2012-07-31)

Is it possible to run this game on win 7 64 bit??

rebelravindra (2012-08-16)

Dude.. i m dying to play this game ... help me out!!!

ilikegmod (2012-12-19)

OmarBeK (2013-01-19)

I can't thank you enough for this wonderful game ! First it didn't work then I've tried the solution you gave (download the zip file & ....) and now it's working :D THANKS !!!

iLirian (2013-05-13)

this game does not work on win7 64 bit

zSMILERz (2013-07-03)

It works when u mount the image with daemon tools but why its in a VLC format I`ll never know

abobobilly (2013-09-25)

@Shah_Jahan! I just wanted to thank you for that method because it really works. Appreciate it brother :)
Just one more thing. Is there any way we can stop using the mounted disk? Its annoying to mount the disk everytime i want to play. Gamcopyworld maybe? hm?

arifur_rahman (2015-04-11)

@Shah Jahan
Well, I did everything you said.But in the last step when I am suppose to keep the "dgvoodoo.exe" running, it shows that dgVoodoo Server Stub has stopped working and then i try to open NFS2SEA.EXE and it shows "Your hard drive has less than 1MB free space...." which is true.So, tell me what can I do now?
Thanks.

arifur_rahman (2015-04-11)

@Shah Jahan
Oops! little writing mistake,
*which is not true*

arifur_rahman (2015-04-11)

@All (especially the Win 7 64 bit users)
I have finally found a working method.I have only tested it in Windows 7 64 bit. Can't say about others.You have to try it for yourself.Read the instructions exactly the way he said here...
www dot play-old-pc-games dot
And if you want to improve your sound quality because I have noticed the sound is pretty husky so here it is, just download and install this software...
community dot pcgamingwiki dot
Now just add NFS II SE in it (Game title would be the name of your game folder and Use game path *Copy paste the address of your game directory* nothing else need to be changed)
Yeah, that should do it :)
