Did you try setting the compatibility mode to Windows XP/Vista and running as administrator? It's in the properties tab of the file. If not that maybe rm2k3 hates 64 bit (I really don't know)

yeah yuo are probably right because I played on this OS 2k3 games normaly untill I instaled RPG Maker programs.I am thinking that even after I unistaled programs some components ate still in registry editor and they make problems.Is the a way to know which registry files belong to rpg maker program?
when i bether think this problem started after i downloaded i tried to play game"Dark Eternal".It didnt what to start so I downloded and instaled rpg maker 2003 and after that any of 2003 games wont work.I tried that game on other computer with WIN XP 32 and it worked normaly.

author=Cherrythere is no option for windowed mod or I can not find it.There is option n shorcut to game to run it in normal,minimized or maximized mod and whichever I take when i doubleclick game i get black screen.
Did you try starting the games in windowed mode?
p.s
I tried game in Safe Mode and it works but there is no sound(cause safe mode).

no i dont have RTP for all makers bacause I unistaled all.I am not getting any errors game just freeze.Probably it has nothing to do with RTP files cause I can play games when i start Windows in safe mod.
Please answer my question: Does it work in windowed mode? (Try it using Fallen-Griever's advice!)
If it doesn't: Let the game freeze, then restart your PC. After restarting, go to Control Panel -> Maintenance -> Event Log and look what's the last entry before the restart. Tell me the details (right-click -> Properties).

I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

I believe you can force RM2K3 games to play in windowed mode with a .ini file. Can someone give him the .ini file? If not I will do so tonight.
It has nothing to do with INI files. You have to pass "Window" as 3rd parameter.
For example:
rpg_rt.exe TestPlay ShowTitle Window
For example:
rpg_rt.exe TestPlay ShowTitle Window

yeah I found that option and when I want to start game in windowed mod it shows error"???? 6720696D ???? 6720696D ???? Reading ????????" and game wont start.
I hope this helps with problem....
EDIT1:LOL I tried again with same option and now it works in windowed mode with RPG Maker 2003 program.
EDIT2:When I start is as test play and use ALT+ENTER I even can play it in fullscreen mod now.
EDIT3:I found this EVENT in Event Log after trying to run game normal and I had to restart PC manualy and it looks strange
"A request to disable the Desktop Window Manager was made by process (RPG_RT.exe)" and after that
"The Desktop Window Manager was unable to start because composition was disabled by a running application"

Looks like a driver problem. Try updating/reinstalling your video drivers.
Workaround:
- right click the RPG_RT.EXE file in Explorer
- choose Properties
- click on Compatibility tab
- under Settings, check Disable Desktop Composition
- click OK
