Its been a while since I tried to play this, and yeah its the real game, I cant for the life of me get it to work. I have tried running it normally and as admin, the small box screen pops up and then my screen goes black, and I get the "MVP Baseball 2005 requires directX 9 and hardware graphics acceleration". The game once installed worked fine on my Windows XP computer, but on this I've never been able to get it to work, is there something I need to download or that I'm doing wrong?
