Only just bought it & wondered if people still had problems installing. Can't install yet as I'm at work, but wanna be prepared for any possible crap later.

Mine installed fine tbh, just be very patient....

People had problems with the activation, which SI have now fixed (server overload I guess it was)

SEGA and Sports Interactive explain authentication problems with Football Manager™ 2009

After prolonged issues with pre-release piracy, this year SEGA and Sports Interactive decided to implement a new copy protection system for Football Manager 2009. The incorporation of Uniloc's copy protection system for the game has unfortunately caused a number of unexpected difficulties which SEGA would like to explain to any customers who may have experienced problems authenticating their copy of Football Manager 2009 since it launched on Friday November 14th.

The first problem was that the printing of the keycodes on the in-game manuals. The choice of font meant that some customers were unable to decipher their authentication keycode correctly due to some of the different characters in the keycode looking very similar. On realising this on the Thursday evening, SEGA worked closely with the team at Uniloc to update code on the authentication servers to work around the problem. This situation does not affect customers in Australia and America where the keycodes were printed without any issues.

The authentication servers then suffered a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack from an external party which significantly delayed the distribution of the solution for several hours. The knock-on effect of the DDoS attack subsequently necessitated that the phone line keycode activation, which also runs through the online authentication servers, had to be suspended so that the online authentication servers could be prioritised. Since this time the individual phone lines have been under constant DDoS attack. Unfortunately this means that some customers are still experiencing difficulties authenticating their copy of the game via phone activation, although the online server authentication is currently working as it should be.

SEGA would like to stress that while there are still some problems being experienced with customers trying to authenticate their game via phone, everything is being done to ensure that this is resolved as soon as possible. SEGA and Sports Interactive take pride in producing the very best Football Manager year on year, and regret that this unfortunate situation has arisen. SEGA and Sports Interactive would like to unequivocally apologise to any customers who have experienced difficulties in authenticating their game, restate their desire to solve every issue encountered in the process, and enable all customers to be able to play and enjoy Football Manager 2009.

Despite the issues that some users faced at the weekend, and since its launch on Friday, Football Manager 2009 has authenticated over 200,000 copies globally, but all at SEGA and Sports Interactive are determined for the small amount of people who are still having issues to be up and running as soon as possible. For those who are still experiencing problems, please do contact our Customer Services department at www.sega-europe.com/support, or visit our game forums at http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=63556 where a FAQ is available for those still having issues.

Statement ends.

This is posted on behalf of SEGA and SI - this would have been posted by Miles had he not been on a plane at this moment.

Played my first league game with Leicester. It's not attacking im bad at, its defending !

Went 2-0 with Heidar Helguson scoring a brace, only to lose 3-2 thanks to 2 mistakes by Berner. :frusty:

Poor result.

SACKED! :|

Hahahaha I have never been sacked from any CM/FM game ever in my life.

Currently in pre season of the Championship season, have just sold Tuchev for £2.7m and used the money to buy Amr Zaki from his Egyptian club! Along with freebie James Beattie, that lineup will hopefully get me into the top 6!
