They must have improved Games X copy since the first version becuase I was never able to make a backup of any game with it, just got coasters. I still have my licence for the software maybe I'll try it again someday if you say they have fixed it.

i'm using version 1.0.8 of games x copy...i made the images of all 3 madden 2006 cds...then i used the images to burn 3 cds of my own...i installed the game with the copied versions of the game...the 1st cd got stuck at 98% completed when i tried to image it...but if you wait it out (a good 10 minutes) you'll get to 100%.

With games x copy I've successfully imaged doom3...madden 2006...madden 2005...nhl 2005...need for speed underground2...mvp baseball 2004 and 2005...colin mcrae rally 4...just to name a few to give u an idea...if the imaging doesn't work (rarely) then you burn it directly...1 or the other always works. After making the image files, I then create the cds.

Problem

Hey guys, i followed all of that and still canīt manage to get the game started. Youīll see, when i launch daemon tools and load the CD1 image file and then press play at the launch scene, i got a message telling me that "Mainapp.exe has found a problem and must close" or something like that

I DONīT KNOW WHAT IS THE DARN PROBLEM NOW, MAYBE THE COPY I INSTALLED IS CRAP OR AM I WRONG??

possible problems if this doesn't work

ok first off make sure u load the IMAGE file in dameon tools...which when you make it...make sure it's from the Original CD and not a copy of the game...

if on the otherhand u are using a copied version of the game to make the image then by far i'd say the problem is the cds you are using...i've noticed that Kodaks are complete and utter garbage and realized for the 1st time that not all cds are made the same...had countless copy problems with Kodaks including similar problems to what u mentioned above...the 1s I use now are Memorex Black CD-R....they are the best I've ever used

2nd thing...maybe it'd ur Burner that's messed up...i'm using lite-on 52x32x52x
which i picked up for a measly $50 and blows the plextor away...copies anything flawlessly

or maybe it's the image software you used...again i used gamesXcopy and it worked flawlessly...just burned NHL2006 using same method as Madden06 and it also worked

on another note...first hand reviews of Madden06 say that it's not that great and that they now charge you a fee if you wish to play online...rumour is that overall the graphics are good but the AI isn't so great and ur better off sticking with Madden05

yes works great!

Simply use Nero burning rom to make an image(refer to the nero help file if you dont know how) It will tell you their is many unrecoverable read errors and it will take a while to finish, but it will finish! Once you have the nero image of the madden play disc simply install daemon tools and mount the madden image you just created with nero and the game will work flawlessly on any computer without the cd in the cdrom drive. Their is no need for expensive programs like game copy X or whatever to make an image when most people have nero burning rom for their cd burner anyways. Daemon tools is a free program as well simply find it with google. oh and THANKS TO YOU ALL FOR THE IDEA FOR ME TO TRY THIS WAY! JUST AN ADDED PIECE OF INFORMATION FOR THOSE WHO DONT OWN GAME COPY X OR WHATEVER ELSE IS OUT THERE!
