So, it will be a much longer..
1. If you have to backing up/simplest install to convert the 3CDs to 1 DVD:
- Copy the CD#3 - CD#2 last CD#1 files to a TEMP folder with OVERWRITE
the files, with FULL PATHS!!!
- edit the file COMMON_FILELIST.TXT and change ALL the lines beginning
2,1 or 3,1 or 3,2 or 3,3 TO 1,1 (this will took to get the files where the
CD#1 files) and SAVE this changes.
Write whole TEMP to a writable DVD labeled FIFAM06CD1 (I tested this
from HDD/DVD and works, don't know ANY label working or not....).
BUT YOU NEED always at 1ST START the ORIGINAL CD#3 to play the game!

2. If you wanna play without the original CD, make Image-file with Alcohol
v1.9.5.3105 (read 4x/8x, and SAFEDISC 2/3 option) SAVE it to your
copied TEMP folder (.MDF and .MDS file will follow) and THAT'S WRITE
to a writable DVD5 (hoping to your CD/DVD-reader reads the important
Datas CORRECTLY and the Alcohol-Image WORKS PERFECT to Bypass the
Protection!!!!! It's very important, so TEST the game from TEMP folder:
simple install and WATCH the 3rd STEP UNDER this to TEST/PLAY).

3. How can play next?
Download Virtual CDHide program from CDMediaworld utils.
- Mount the Alcohol-image from HDD/from THE CREATED DVD (!!!)
with Alcohol.
- right click on the STARTER DESKTOP ICON, PROPERTIES/COMPATIBLE,
select WIN2000 (or WIN98 sure works anyway) and click OK.
THE START NEEDS GO TO STRAIGHT the exe, ofcourse...
- Start VirtualHide program, it will goes to the EXPLORER BAR. Just right
click on 'em and select HIDE ALL.
- double click on the starter desktop icon. IF YOUR CREATED IMAGE
WORKS GOOD, after some seconds the game starting and you can play
without your ORIGINAL CD#3.

When you EXIT from the game, UNMOUNT the Image in Alcohol and
start VirtualHide selecting UNHIDE ALL to back normally.
