I've read latest version is protected by SecuROM 7.35.0006

PES 2008 v1.2 uses same version and Poseden states it works with DT 4.06 + YASU 1.3.
I'm sure it does on his rig, but doesn't on mine (and other's).

Today DT 4.11.0219 trial of DT Pro Basic was released. This version or regular DT Pro Basic (with Adware) + YASU 1.3 or 1.4 might work - at least it does for PES 2008 1.2

P.S. If the mds file of Poseden image doesn't work for you, too, and your drive can't make a good DPM you can search the net for another one ;)

finally it managed to work
i dont know how
i just used daemon tools 4.06 and YASU 1.3 and it worked
i took a break for the exams and when i was back it worked fine
i dont know why but before it worked it just said please insert the original disc and not a backup and then it worked

anyway
thanx for help

i was using DT 4.08 and YASU 1.4

Nothing there works (although YASU 1.3 refuses to run on my computer for some reason)

What happens when you run YASU; do you get an error message; have you read its manual?

When I run it, nothing happens. I get the Windows hourglass, but YASU doesn't actually start up. If I look in Task Manager, it's just there, as a memory hog (90+% of CPU). I have put all the files from YASU.zip into DAEMON Tools in Program Files

Try again with YASU.exe from official sources: v1.3 / v1.4

Also, use FileMon and RegMon from http://www.sysinternals.com to see what files and registry entries YASU accesses (tries to access?) before it gets into an infinite loop (?).

YASU 1.4 always worked, it was 1.3 I had trouble with, Zulu's link worked, but even with YASU 1.3/DT 4.06 I get 'Conflict with Emulation...'.

DAEMON Tools lite 4.11 has been released today.
Using that there won't be any conflict anymore. Of course you still need YASU.

I tried DTL 4.11 with YASU 1.3, didn't work. Turned Securom on in the DT options, still nothing. Tried YASU 1.4, and still I get 'Conflict with emulation software detected'. Turned everything on in DT, and STILL it won't work!

I found out why 1.3 didn't work, anyway:

1.3 (build 7071)

* Fixed bug with AMD processors, caused an infinite loop.

Something else must cause that message on your rig; i'm sure it's not DT or YASU.
What kind of image do you use now ?

P.S. You never need to check emulation options when mounting images. They're only needed for burned media.

-EDIT-
Just to be sure:
Do you get "Please insert the original disc instead of a backup (1000)" OR as you wrote something with emulation detected ?
If it's the first you can try this mds file with poseden's mdf:
http://www.sendspace.com/file/yt9rlz

Yep. I found PowerISO running in the background. DT 4.11/YASU 1.4 says 'Wrong disc inserted", same with YASU 1.3

Also, the new MDS file just does the same

Hey Guys,
for me DT 4.0.6 + Y.A.S.U. 1.4 works partially.
The game starts but when I click the green arrow to move on in time, it does not work. :(
Someone who has a solution? Tested many combinations of DT + YASU but all with the same result. Also tested the image posted here...

Greetings

I don't believe such an ingame issue is anyhow related to the fact someone is using a mounted image.
Have you verified that same thing doesn't happen with original disc, too ?

Yes, I tried.
With the crashing exe from GCW it worked fine, too, but it crashed. :(
Only with the image it does not work properly.

what would be wrong if DT says
unable to mount image
file is not accessable ?

this happened with the image inthis link

this what i found after patch 2

till now it wont work for me except with the original cd

using the old image which worked with fifa manager 08 and update 1
with update 2 is says "Please insert the original disc instead of a backup (1000)"

this image worked fine before updating the game
!!

it seems that you are using the 40MB no-dvd crack
it was released as the no-dvd crack for 1.1 but it was a wrong release
i tried it yess
when you click on the green arrow it doesnt work

greetings

be aware that filemon and regmon will most likely (for safedisc and securom i think) cause another Security module error when trying to launch the game...

and, rebooting is the only way to fix that (and then not loading filemon/regmon again obviously)...

mdf and mds must have same name, e.g. MANAGER08.mds + MANAGER08.mdf

If the MDS-file is only of "average" but not of good quality an image sometimes works, and sometimes it doesn't which results in error 1000 message. There are also seldom other reasons for error 1000, but i guess it's just coincidence it didn't occur before Patch 2.

After you clicked Ok, don't you also get "Conflict with emulation software detected" message ?
Because afaik all virtual drive versions of DT incl. 4.11.1 are blacklisted.
Latest Alcohol 120% released yesterday doesn't have a newer virtual drive engine ... it even uses an older one than DT 4.11.

Only working method that i know is burning a RMPS copy with Alcohol 120%

but the link has only 1 file
should i have the other on my pc ?
i mean should i burn an iamge for that ?

i dont know it always worked for me before patch 1
but this is how it worked
double click on the game
then clicking on cloacking several times till the game starts
this always used to work till patch 1

nop never gave me that there is a conflict

Just use the mdf file from poseden image

btw. I've just read elsewhere it should still work with 4.06 + YASU 1.4, but it doesn't for me :(

If you want to burn an emulated copy on DVD just create and burn image with Alcohol's 'SecuROM' datatype.
If your drive isn't capable of 'Data Position measurement' just use Poseden's or my MDS file with your selfprovided MDF file before you burn on DVD.
Enable 'RMPS' in Alcohol's or Daemon Tools' emulation settings, insert DVD and play.

it worked
:D
using DT 4.06 and YASU 1.4
with the mds from the link you wrote and the mdf from poseden

this is how it worked
i opened yasu
double click the game
start clicking on cloacking
keep clicking till the game starts

try it and tell me if this is working with me only or it will always work

"always work" - it can only work with the current patches (if it works at all)... any update could add in extra blacklisting etc.. so "always works" is guessing into the future... noone can answer it...

Yessssss, I must say worked 4 me as well, well done!!!!! Thanks very much u made my xmas better......happy xmas & happy new year.

I got it working with Game Jackal.

1. Create a Profile
2. Choose the CD-Drive
3. Choose "No Default Profile"
4. Name the Profile (e.g. FM08)
5. Look up the .exe
6. Put in the original disc and wait

greetings, merry x-mas, happy new year, happy holidays

well
so it's working foe everybody i can say

have a good time
merry christmas and happy new year everybody
happy holidays :)

restart
 

I also finally managed to get it to work with the new mds, however I still have a problem which I had with the no-cd that often my computer restarts when beginning the 3d match, between the first loading screen and the second. I have updated my drivers, and I really cant work out what the problem is

ok, first of all i have to say that you guys (and girls of course) rock :D

if it does help anyone, i'll tell you how it worked for me...

1. download DT 4.06 (link provided by Riggadon in 1 of his posts)
2. download Yasu 1.4 (link provided by Zulu)
3. use posedon's original files
4. in DT emulate only securerom (thanks Riggadon again)
5. in Yasu turn of safedisc, use only securerom (again, thanks to Riggadon)
6. don't worry, be happy... erm i meant - play the game :)
7. short notice: the cursor goes "CD" again (it changes to a spinning CD), but then it changes back to an arrow and the game launches as usual

i went on for about 2 months (game time), no crashes at all... with the fixed exe i had a crash every 2-3 days. so... everythings' fine, exept i didn't qualify for Euro cup with England, stupid Israel threw me out hehe :)

Hi All :)
Merry belated christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone :)

Now to my problem:
I downloaded the game, but i seem to have downloaded a differnet version than you, since i don't have the poseidon image, but an ISO from Fairlight..
So i downlaoded a converter, and made myself a .mdf file from that iso and downloaded the .mds that was linked in this topic. But it just wont wokr. I have Daemon Tools 4.06 and YASU 1.4, both with just the SecuRom abilities on. And i egt the "Wrong DVD/CD" Error.. Is that beacause i used the Firlight iso? I just dont want to download the Poseidon image again, cause that'll take another 3 days -.- Or is there no way around that?
Maybe Im also doin smth. else wrong O.o :confused:

Hope to find help here :)

@Quork: Banned, forum rule #1.

Hi there,
I do not speak english very well, because of this I have some questions about your steps.
Step 1) done
Step 2) done
Step 3) is this only the "MANAGER08.mds" file?
Step 4) done
Step 5) done

What should I do now? If I mount the mds.file with DT it says"unable to image"
Does I need to use the MANAGER08.EXE from GCW or the original one?

Thanks for helping me!

If you only have an ".mds" file, create an ".mdf" image from your original and use the two together. This is described in the PC Game forum FAQ which you should have read...

Hi, I've been trying to get this to work for a few days and pretty much gave up.

I tried using the latest DT Lite and YASU 1.3/1.4 (dunno which builds) but that didn't work. I decided to give it one last go as I hadn't tried using DT 4.06 and it has worked! :D

1. I have the game installed with patch 2
2. Installed DT 4.06 from the link provided by Riggadon
3. Downloaded YASU 1.3.7070 from the link provided by Riggadon
4. Mounted Posedon's MDF file with Zulu's MDS file (renamed mds to match Posedon's filename - doubt that makes a difference ^^).
5. Opened YASU (with DT 4.06 already running), deselected SafeDisc 4 cloaking (leaving only SecuROM 7 selected), pressed cloak.
6. Run FIFA Manager from desktop shortcut, and it worked first time!

I left the DT 4.06 options unchanged after installing with exception to auto start. All emulation options off, Secure mode, auto mount and Tray icon options are on (leaving InUse check & auto start off).

Hopefully it'll continue working. Major thanks to Riggadon & Zulu for their help and everyone else for suggestions :)

Hey guys. Right. I did everything you said with DT 4.06 then with YASU 1.3, only checked SecuRom etc etc.
Everything worked fine, honky dorey.
But now! I'll try and play and all I get is..

use original disk not backup copy (1000)

Or somthing there abouts.
Any clues thanks?

Just one question - what do you mean with Posedon's MDF file?

I create a mdf. file with alcohol 120% of my original dvd but it still not work with the steps you write down.

I use DT 4.10 and Yasu 1.4
but i just get "Conflict with emulation software detected" message.

Update the DT 4.10 SPTD driver at v1.55. It can be found at http://www.duplexsecure.com/en/downloads.
The Poseden mini-image for FIFA Manager 08 it's reported to work pretty well with DT.

I have tried it with DT 4.06 and now its working!

I have patch2 installed and got it work with DT 4.06+YASU 1.4,1.3 and DT 4.11&4.12+YASU 1.4 The game starts BUT!!then screen goes black and it crash after that easports bla bla blaa thing!. any solution to this??? and yes the image files are poseden and zulu's mds. HELP!:(

well, you could try the following...
1. use original disk + original exe
2. run yasu anyway and cloak away
3. see if the crash still happens

the idea of the above is to see if yasu's cloaking can actually interfere somehow with the game code.. if it does then it points the finger of blame at yasu... if it doesn't it points the finger at possibly a damaged file etc...

There is a fix by EA / Bright Future. They released a new .exe a couple of days ago that should avoid the crash / black screen.
Just look at fm07.de and the first news item contains a link.

I don't know if I'm allowed to direct link the file or if it even works with a non-german version of the game.
But it's an official file for all customers of the game so please delete the link if it's not allowed: http://www.eafiles.de/downloads/patch/Manager08.exe
