Madden 2006 NO CD Crack

Yes, it's off-topic so, please, find your solution in the proper forum (which this is NOT). I would recommend that you buy another copy instead - it might much less of a hassle than bugging people at Electronic Arts. (Perhaps, if you still have a proof of purchase - bill, jewel case, manual, whatever -, they can give you a deal...?)

burp... yes its off topic (somewhat) as KEY DISKS to prevent piracy is the only reason this site exsists.

Just wanted to say that BUGGING EA was the only way to go and worked quite well.
They are replacing my disks for a nominal charge plus shipping and handling even though my situation doesn't follow the criteria for replacement.

Hey guys!

I got a problem. I made an image of Disc one, like you guys are written here in this thread. I tried games x copy, alcohol 120 and clonecd for making an image, so now i got three images of disc one, .xmd, .mdf, .img.

now i tried to load one of the images in daemon tools 3.47 an tried to start the game. there isnt any message of wrong cd or something like this, just the start screen is there, and is something like frozen. well, i think im gonna explain this more: you want to start the "mainapp.exe" and then there is a little screen right in the middle of your desktop, and this white screen is frozen, and nothing will happen.

I tried to mount the images in daemon tools, alcohol 120, virtual clone drive and nero image drive. i also tried the tool sd4hide but i think this tool even doesnt work correktly...

I hope you guys can help me! and sorry for my grammatical mistakes.

ps: i never got any problems with images or something, nfs-mw, nba 06, everything just works fine, but with madden 06 i lose my hope...

thanks for any replies

I had the same problem made an image then when go to play the game the same thing happens

[sl4m dunk]

Well, the positive thing is, the game now works... im happy

i just done 2 things. i installed the newest version of daemon tools (the "about" says DAEMON TOOLS 4.03HE).
Then i imaged all three disc's, but i tried some other cd's from my friend he has the original too and we are playing online together now.

i mounted all three disc's with daemon tools so i have 3 virtual drives, but that's not really important for me.

well, i just think my disc is maybe broken or something like this. maybe i made the image not the correctly way.

and, thanks for the support...

[Joe Forster/STA]

If your originals are broken, contact the publisher for a replacement, thinking of the future: in case your hard disk crashes and you lose the images, you won't be able to create another set of images from your broken originals!

wait...i'm a little confused...someone please tell me if this is right.
1. make a disc image of madden 06 disc 1 via alcohol, games x copy, nero, etc. but this is a FILE on your hard drive...you don't actually burn a cd, correct?
2. download daemon tools 3.47 or 4.03
3. open the madden06 disc 1 disc image on your hard drive w/ daemon tools on one of your virtual drives
4. double click the madden 06 shortcut on your desktop/start menu
is this all correct? just want to make sure i have everything right. so you don't ever end up burning your disc image onto an actual cd (always use your hard drive file)? are there any specific things that need to be done on daemon tools before mounting the image file? any settings that have to be modified? any special settings when making the image via alcohol or nero? thanks!

That problem is actually caused by madden. You need to go to C:/program files/madden 06. In there, there is a music folder. Change it from /Music to like musicxxx or something like that. That has been a problem in madden for a few years now.

Does anyone know WHAT settings to create an image with, with alcoho 120%

As I try to create a image, im getting tons of errors.

[RincewindTheWiz]

For this game, since it's using Safedisk 4, use the Safedisk 2/3 datatype. And those errors are part of Safedisk so that's normal. Just ignore the errors and make the image.

Hey, I ended up losing my CD1 for the game. I've still got the other two discs and the serial key and box, but I can't play the game without the first CD. Do you think that EA would replace the lost CD? I love playing Madden, but I'm not gonna pay for another copy of the game when '07 is just around the corner.

Thanks

i found a way to get past the mainapp.exe error

its very simple... unmount the image from daemon and remount it... game should work provided you made a good image
