    Right then, I've answered a few question recently, so I thought I'd put all the answers in one thread! hope this helps!

    First things first!
    You will need to download and install the following :-

    A torrent client! you WILL NEED some type of client! to download the game file and any other torrent, get this here :- µTorrent - The Lightweight and Efficient BitTorrent Client

    PowerIso :- to open the ISO game file you just downloaded ( most games files are in ISO format ) ! get this here :- Details of PowerISO v3.8 + keygen + serials : Software > Windows - CD/DVD Tools - Mininova

    The no-cd/fixed exe, just download which ever version you need! get this here :-
    Football Manager 2008 No-CD Patches & Game Fixes- GameBurnWorld

    WinRar to unzip the no-cd/fixed exe (crack), get this here :-
    PRECRAcked-WinRAR.3.71 : Software > Windows - Other - Mininova

    The Game itself can be downloaded from here :-
    [www globalbolly com] Football Manager 2008 (PC) + crack[globalbolly com] : Games > Windows - Mininova

    and for all your updating (like installing Patches,Graphics etc) and instruction how to update! go here :-
    Football Manager 2008 forum - Neoseeker Forums


    Once you have installed all of the above that needs to be installed, you can start with the installation of the game!:87: lol I nearly gave up at this point! But once I done it all! I love everything about the game! Its totally worth it!:50:

    Open the file that has the game file in it, and you will see a gold disk Icon, this is the game(might be another icon but if you put the mouse pointer over it, it will say "type- iso image disk", and the crack exe file with the FM2008 logo(right click on this, copy and paste this to your desktop so it can be found easily later!)!
    Right click the ISO file, Scroll down to PowerIso, follow the wee arrow and mount to Virtual Drive! 5 secs later, this will open a new window ( in PowerIso (might just be a normal window), this is the computer thinking you have inserted the actual game disk! ) and show some files, now there should be a file called Setup, double click and it will start the installer programe!
    Once installed, copy the exe file that you put onto your desktop earlier and paste here :-
    C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2008
    You will be asked to overwrite the existing one, click yes or ok!
    This should be a working FM2008! You will have to update or install the patch to get a fully working Scottish League though, as after your first season, the League games vanish, which leave with just cup games!!:87:

    To install the patch or update once you have downloaded it from neoseeker...go here for proper instructions :-
    Patch 8.0.2 Discussion and Support - II - Neoseeker Forums

    You cant run the game untill you copy and paste the no-cd/fixed exe to here again :-
    C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2008
    Depending which patch youve updated to e.g 8.0.1 or 8.0.2, download the no-cd/fixed exe file from link posted above!


    NOW! you have a fully working FM2008! WHOOHOO!:celt_2:

    FM Modifier is a neat tool to give you Millions in the bank, or alter player and team stats! Depending on which patch you've got, it changes version. you'll need to Google this as I dont have any links to this! If you have updated to 8.0.2 version ( the one I would I recommend! ) .... FMM 2.24 is the only one that works! I think its in the Neoseeker forum!

    Any Questions ..... Let me know and I'll try my best to get back and answer you ASAP!
