This seems to be an easier fix for live 03 and 04.
1. Open your C drive.
2. Locate your Documents folder and open.
3. In the Documents folder, look for NBA LIVE 2004 and open it.
4. Then look for the cscripts folder and open.
5. right click on hwconfig and open with notepad.
6. You will see this...
r_hardwaresettings.nVideoMode 1
r_hardwaresettings.nScreenWidth 1920
r_hardwaresettings.nScreenHeight 1080
r_hardwaresettings.nScreenBPP 32
r_hardwaresettings.bGammaSupport 1
r_hardwaresettings.fGammaValue 0.5000
r_hardwaresettings.nTextureFilterType 2
r_hardwaresettings.bVSync 0
r_hardwaresettings.bTripleBuffer 0
CHANGE ONLY THE SCREEN WIDTH TO 1920 OR 3840(IF YOUR TV AND VIDEO CARD CAN HANDLE)
AND SCREEN HEIGHT TO 1080(2K) OR 2160(4K)
7. upper left hand corner click file and save from the drop down menu.
8. close file, load game and play.
NOTE: Title screens and all other screens will stay the same. Once you start the actual game, it will be full screen.
I tested this on 1920x1080(2K), but not yet on 3840x2160(4K)
Hopefully this works for you and helps!
