Well, NFS High Stakes is just NFS 3 but a bit improved. Nothing special. Sure, it still feels cool but again, lack of new content makes it a bit boring.

Here is a link to 'NFS4 - Installed Full'. Not sure how long it'll keep on zippy if it isn't accessed regularly, so to whoever is moderating here, maybe add it here as a download option?

So here is what I ended up doing to get it going on win 10.
I ran a win 7 VM in wich it installed just fine, it did involve PowerISO though for mounting. Then I copied the install dir to win 10.
Win 10 instructions:
1. Copy to where you keep your games 'NFS4 - Installed Full'.
2. Run patch (01) install in 'NFS4 - Installed Full', ignore read only files.
3. Install extra cars (04), hassle I skipped this.
4. Copy paste content patch (02) in 'NFS4 - Installed Full'.
- The game is now playable, try it (nfs4.exe) once maybe for next steps recognition? (is what I did not sure if necessary)
5. Install Patch (03), mainly for proper resolution on wide screen (you still have to tweak the in game graphics and disable wide screen).
- Yes to copy music dir/files (did not come up, but it did in win 7)
- Yes to 3D Setup
-- pick: nGlide
- yes to run nGlide config
-- pick: resolution » by desktop
-- pick: Vsync off (personal preference)
6. Play the game with regular nfshs.exe
01. Special Installer with included patch 4.50, nocd and fixes
image must be mounted first English version 1011 KB
02. Modern Patch made by Evgeny English version 2 MB
03. NFS_HS_EP_Setup_V4.0_1.76 (someone linked to this in the comments)
04. Official Extra Cars English version 40 MB
Link for 'NFS4 - Installed Full' in next comment. Don't know where to upload it permanently though.

how I got NFS IV High Stakes to work on windows 10
Copy DATA and SAVEDATA directories from the NFS4 CD to Need For Speed IV High Stakes
copy the nfs4_modern_patch files to Need For Speed IV High Stakes and over write.
https://veg.by/en/projects/nfs4/
install the High Stakes IP Lounge installer Expansion Pack Installer file called NFS_HS_EP_Setup_V4.0_(1.78).exe
say yes to many errors then the choose options will come up.
for the IP Lounge EP installer, add:
mercury / 1mbyte error patch
enable movies
some of the options maybe overkill, the installer will also run into issues because NFS HS was not officially installed, so the installer will fail install, due to many missing registry keys including the nfshs.exe that is installed, but the options work, the cars work
say yes to any other installer errors and yes to install anything else the installer suggest to add
http://www.iplounge.net/help/index.htm
manually copy the IP Lounge installer Expansion Pack installed files from C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Need for Speed to the Need For Speed IV High Stakes and over write.
to fix NFS HS Mixer
copy all NFS HS Mixer files to Need For Speed IV High Stakes folder
and adjust shortcut target to D:\Games\Need For Speed IV High Stakes\Mixer.exe
copy over previously saved game if you played NFS HS before
copy the files below to Need For Speed IV High Stakes\SaveData
config.dat
records.dat
ghost.gst
replay.rp4
and
saves folder to Need For Speed IV High Stakes\SaveData
run totalpatch 3.0 to unlock Ferarri and Mercedes for hot pursuit mode
https://www.nfscheats.com/nfs4-downloads.php?list=nfs4&cat=9
install Keiiko NFS2/3/4 Wrapper
copy the setupMP wrapper from setupMP to Need For Speed IV High Stakes
run the setupMP.exe
yes to allow windows
no to set optionsfor setupMP
choose thrash driver tab and nGlide selection
goto nGlide tab and choose use desktop resolution and preseve aspect ratio
save and run
https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=de&tl=en&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fredirect%3Fq%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fxcx.4fan.cz%252Fsetup-for-modern-packs%252F%26redir_token%3DQUFFLUhqazRBb09pX254VnZsTlRfQXlSZDY4aTZSX0NZQXxBQ3Jtc0ttdU05bW1CM05YVHJDZkNUclhDRmRkd2dHSEFhN3NqSW9TWjBQNUxCRjBWM3dHZk94UFhlWTYyelJZb3V4OGJTNkQ1dHlQM2xJMnpHNW1fdWR6U2ROOUFqVFBrSm5STjdtMEtoR2sxNV9mTHExSlY1dw%253D%253D%26event%3Dvideo_description%26v%3De4mbkpREv4k&prev=search
When need to lanuch the game next time, launch the moderm patch nfs4.exe file, not the ip lounge updated nfshs.exe
set the "Options"/"Graphics" to 1600 x 1200
do not enable triple buffer under "Options"/"Graphics"/"Advanced settings"., otherwise the game may end up crashing with an AMF=5 screen.c(563) error.
to fix this, youll need to delete the file SaveData\config.dat, run and reconfigure the game.
NOTE:
the IPLounge client does not work in this setup, but you get the HS Mixer, and the extra cars, track changer, plus the HOSS updated menu system in the game.

For people who are having trouble mounting the IMG file, try converting it to an ISO. I made an open-source converter called ccd2iso specifically so I could play this game, but there's also freeware tools for disc authoring that can mount .img files.

Works fine in win 10 64 bit when using English and the modern patch. Use deamon tools to mount image on windows 10. Then copy the content of the mounted image to a folder then copy the modern patch on top and you are good to go.

Runs well on my Windows XP system, though the graphics is not as good as it was when I played it 15 years back with a graphics card. Maybe they'll have emulators for old graphics cards some day. :) Haven't found away to run it on my Windows 10 laptop, though.
What I really like about this game is the set of features that I could not find in much later games (e.g., Need for Speed Hot Pursuit (2010),) such as replay and mirrored tracks. Despite the better graphics in modern games, I prefer this one because of its beautiful locations and pure gameplay. The newer games just do not feel so "nice."

Tested it on Win 10 32 bit with patched installer:
German doesn't work, because the application can't load german speak files of the cops. The program breaks down in that case.
So I tried again in English... I can maybe drive one race and in the main menu I get always an exception and the program breaks down. This is annoying :-(
