Just done a search of the fifa 2002 forum and found something:
(pasted straight across)
This type problem is associated with Computers that run at 2Ghz or higher maybe some sort of timing sync problem and EA is a dead loss when it comes to support as they spend their time counting $$ not trying to help gamers. However there are a few things left that you can try to work around this which has worked for some people.
1. When your PC starts hit "delete" to go to set up.( blue screen )
In the bios go to cpu settings and change the cpu speed from 133/133 to 100/133...save and exit. The cpu speed will be reduced to 1.9GHz and the game should load up.
You can always change it back to the original setting ( 133/133 ) anytime by rebooting and hitting delete to get back into the bios to restore your original settings. Do not forget to save before exiting the bios. You can check EZ tool too confirm that the change has taken effect.
2. Does your CD drive seemed to be doing a lot of blinking right before it crashes?
Then go to www.gamecopyworld.com and download a no-cd patch there
Look for the game index at the site and click on "F" . That will enable you to run your game without reference to the CD.
Only thing I could find, hope it helps u a bit
