Reading a few Football Manager forums there and from what Ive read this must be the biggest c**k up of a game ever released. There have been so many problems with installation and that activation code thing has truly fucked everything.
Gone are the days when you could install it and do half a season in a day.

No problems from here at all now, it was freezing the computer but that seems to have been overcome

Anybody remember the Championship Manager (think it was 97/98) when ya didn;t need the disk to play the game once you had it loaded so 1 game could be passed around 30 or 40 people?!

Howtimes change..........

Yes!! Loved that game...

I've bought FM religiously for the last few years but I think I'll hold out till the first patch this time around. From what I've read here the whole thing seems like a rushed, botch job. Its been going that way for a while, the game is always released despite quite a few significant bugs

Running the game without a cd is still possible. This website will give you a little file that you stick into the install directory and overwrite the file that is already in there. I don't think this game is there yet but it will be soon...
