1) Use the following tools:

- Daemon Tools 4.09 (4.10 is reported to NOT work)

- YASU (Yet Another SecuROM Utility) 1.4.7080 - get it here:
http://www.cdmediaworld.com/hardware/cdrom/cd_utils_8.shtml#Y.A.S.U

2) First, mount the .mds file in Daemon Tools. Install the game and choose to not
run the game after installation has completed.

3) Copy the YASU.exe file to the path where Daemon Tools is installed. Doubleclick
the YASU.exe file to start the cloaking of Daemon Tools.

4) Find the location where you installed Football Manager 2008 to. Rightclick
the .exe file, and set it to run as Administrator and set compatibility
mode to Windows 2000 or Windows XP (Windows 98-mode returned an "System does not
meet the system requirements"-error when starting the game)

5) It should now bypass the security check when starting the game. If not, make
sure you've read this file again - it worked for me using this procedure.
