ISS PRO EVOLUTION 2! WHAT's THE DEAL?

[Dan17]

Sorry but I can't really get a solid verdict on this. Is the UK PAL version protected? I copied the game through CDR-WIN using the same method as I would if I were going to use a ppf patch on it and the game wouldn't load past the first licence screen. Is this method wrong? Could someone who has copied this version tell me exactly how they did it. That would be most appreciated.
Cheers
