Total Club Manager 2005 [ Edited ]

Okay so since it happens at a different time for you, the error must lay somewhere else then.
Unfortunately I have no idea to resolve this. I had a look around the web to see if there was a solution somewhere, but no luck.

The only thing I can think of is loading up a save that is sometime before your last one and try playing that one on to see if that lets you get past the stopper you ran into with your latest save.

I have purchased total club manager 2004 for the PC recently after in my younger years i absolutely loved this game.

However, when i install it on my windows 8 machine, it does not run. have tried compatibility mode and used windows XP mode but it still does not work, even when i try 'test program'.

I find it absolutely disgusting on microsoft's part that there newer upgraded machines are not compatibile with the past, its like going backwards.

Please does anyone have any suggestions?

Hello. I have got Total club manager 2005 years ago and I want to play it again and looks like the seasons limit is 50. But what I want to know is if this is the career limit or the save limit. Because if this is only the carrer limit in theory we could create another trainer and start another career as soon as the limit is reached and continue playing with the same save. However if this is a save limit this couldn't be done and we would have to start a new one. And besides that I would like to know if the same limits apply to the new club mode too.

Thanks.

can i play in tcm 2005 on windows 10??

With new updates to Windows 10 and the game being 13+ years old we cannot guarantee it will run without technical errors or issues launching the game. We're all here to help though if it doesn't go as planned.

My recommendation is to add a desktop shortcut and right-click on it>Select Properties>Compatibility Tab>Run it in an older operating system.

@hans1508 unlikely. The game is using SafeDisc as copy protection and Windows 10 prevents the protection driver from installing. The legal way to play the game is to set a dual-boot machine (Win10 and Win7), trying to run it from a Virtual Machine with Win 7 or having an older PC with Win 7 or lower. There are other methods, but they are too complicated for a normal Windows user. Even the ones listed assume a decent PC/OS knowledge or the willingness to build a PC with older parts, so you would be able to play those old games that we loved.

Thanks for answer,

which one manager from ea sports can i play on windows 10?

@hans1508  Soory for a late reply. FIFA Manager 09 - 14 are your best bets (as those were on Origin at some point). They are hard to come by and i am not sure that they can be registered in Origin anymore.

The series stopped with FIFA Manager 14, as the sales weren't spectacular, most people prefering the competition (and i seriously don't consider their games as proper manager, as many aspects that you could find in Premier League Manager/TCM/FIFA Manager can't be found in the competition's games. I miss a proper FIFA manager game...

And yeah, my personal best was TCM 2004, followed closely by TCM 2003.
