Football Manager 2005 mini-image

I dont have the game myself so I cant tell you exactly where the saved games are but look thru your game folders (they could even be somewhere in the 'My Documents' folder). Then copy them to another folder so you can replace them once you do a re-install of the game.
Once reinstalling the game you may have to start another game, this way the saved game folder will be created again as sometimes the save game folder doesnt appear until you have actually started a game. Once you have the folder created you will be able to quit the game so you can copy your old save files back to the correct directory. I do this with all my games, especially after finishing the game.

WORKS WIF 5.0.3 and 5.0.5 .. tried and tested!

Ok guys listen up.. i've spent days to get this working as there MIGHT NOT be a crack for it.

so to get daemon tools working, do this:

Clean Slate

These are the files to delete first before you install Daemon tools:
- c:\windows\system32\driver\d347bus.sys
- c:\windows\system32\driver\d347prt.sys

Also, Run > regedit
- hkey_local_machine > system > currentcontrolset > services > DELETE: d347bus & d347prt folders

Start > Search > All files n folders > Daemon ... anything daemon tool related.. DELETE.. if unsure, dont do it...

if you dont have these files dont panic, it means ur alredy clean
Ok so you're set.

Download older version first
Download Daemon 3.46

So follow instructions and stuff.. once its done, you will get the Blue Screen of Death. Dont worry, im sure youve restarted it.

double click the icon but it will show you error "No language file detected" or something.

then download starforce driver .. restart again...

now.. download the latest 3.47 daemon and install it.. and if they prompt anything, just undo changes. dont change anything, just click NEXT NEXT NEXT...

then RESTART again.. and voila.. you should see the daemon red icon on your tray... enjoy

ok once uve done with that and open up daemon.. it should be easy...

1) Right click on the system tray daemon logo
2) go to Virtual CD/DVD Rom
3) Device 0:[i:your folder.../FM2005/]
4) Mount Image
5) Find the FM2005.mds you downloaded before
6) click OK, PLAY THE FREAKIN GAME

No u cant not with out the crack for that patch.

anyways........................................... ....

I have one question to those who are having problems with the mini-image.

Are you downloading the 5.0.5 patch then trying to use mini-image ?

because i think that is the problem.I downloaded 5.0.3,and it works fine,but with 5.0.5,it dont work.
So the only way to fix this is for the guys to amke another mini-image,but usuing the 5.0.5 patch this time.

I'm having a problem with this.
When i follow your options i get to number 3) and it says Device 0:[E:] No media

What do i do now??

[rabidscouser]

click on where it says no media select the file you downloaded on the pop up box,,,i think.

Is anybody experiancing massive amounts of computer and football manager slowdown when using this method (mini image) (usage 75%+), PC is 256mb DDR and 2.6ghz.

Secondly,,, does online play work with this crack/any crack/even with a CD??

The mini image should work for online play
