Have you tried double-clicking on the ehm2007.exe located in your installation folder?

What version of Windows are you using?

Uninstall the game. Delete your 'NHL Eastside Hockey Manager 2007' folder.

Download the try'n'buy demo from here: http://download.cnet.com/NHL-Eastside-H ... 86872.html

Install the try'n'buy demo. Once installed, right-click on the ehm2007.exe file -> Properties -> Compatibility -> Tick the box entitled 'Run this program as administrator' -> OK. Double-click on the ehm2007.exe and run the game (click Yes when you are asked if you are sure you want to run the program). Do not license the game, just try starting a new game in demo mode.

If all of the above works, apply your license and all will be fine.

No, that's not quite right.

You don't have to quit the game on 31 September 2011. You can keep on playing past the date so long as each time when you reload, you apply the Patch.
