Played half a season and all was fine. Reloaded the save file and all the fixtures have gone. Madness

This beast was my first football management game on pc and eventually the premiership was mine. I remember some amazing players which i will list and you can thank me later, if you don't want to see them do not read on.
Razvan Rat = LB (fooking great name, rat fans)
CB= up to you, don't want to spoil too much
CB = Mexes
RB= Up to you
LM = Lionel Morgan
CDM = Feddy William Thompson
CAM = Alexander Farnerud
RM = Up to you
SC = Tevez
SC = Cherno Samba
Another SC = Anatoli Todorov.
Keepers are easy enough to remember so i didn't name one. Don't forget the amazing in game but real life flop Freddy Adu, large database needed to find him in game. My tactic back then was 4-4-2 Attacking (diamond)
Got to go now because i need more beer and i need to get to sky sports to do some more punditry that will inevitably be worse the Freddy Adu's footballing career because i'm a biased Arsenal fan lady. Call me Paula Merson from now on. Bye...

Great game, loaded and works perfectly, BUT after a game save it forgets all fixtures so becomes useless. I have loaded the 2 patches which made it run, but don't know how to fix the missing fixture list?

Guys i tried everything too and got the solution for myself.
if it says insert the CD-rom you must download virtualclonedrive.
When you use virtualclonedrive open the ISO file CM0304.
after you did that open the folder of the CD. for me its D:\
after you did that make a shortcut on your desktop of the CM0304.exe file.
then right click the shortcut you just made. at the tab compability, use Windows 98. and hit RUN as administrator.
and ofcourse update the game with both update patches you can download on this page.
after you do this it will work fine.

Trevor, my old mate! I would never dream of using cheat tactics......
Pat! Nice to see you! Come and join me and Wrighty and Brooking for a game of 01/02!
The rest - if you want to play this heap of shite, run in compatability mode and as administrator. If you don't know how to do that, Google it. If still no joy then god help you. Better still, play 01/02 - far superior game.

I have but still the same error..

I have downloaded the game, and the 2 patches below, as well as the misc download too. For whatever reason the game will not play at all on my laptop, which is Windows 10. Can anyone help?

How do i open the game? After i installed it, nothing happens when i try to open the game. Yes, i've tried to open as adm.

I think i actually got a solution to the problem with fixtures disappearing.
1. Install patch 4.1.4 and 4.1.5
2. Right click on the "cm0304" icon, then hit properties.
3. Go to "Compatibility". Find "Compability mode" and tick the box. Then choose "Windows XP (Service Pack 2).
4. Then hit "Security", and then make sure you give full control and allow to "Every program packages" (or whatever it says on your computer, mine is in norwegian).
5. Remeber to run as "Administrator".
Also I started the game from the folder, and not from the desktop. When the game is started I hit "Play game" and "Load game", and not "Resume last game". Dont know if you have to do it this way, probably not. But it worked for me. Restarted the game and the computer about ten times, and the fixtures still there.

Hey, anyone having problems with CM 03/04 (also CM4) like fixtures disappearing and such need to know that one should ALWAYS run it "as Administrator" and in compatibility mode Win XpSp3. It´s ridicolous really that no one on this site could´ve notified us about it.

The problem is all the fixtures disappear when you reload your saved game. Applying patches doesn't do anything unfortunately.

Lars Ricken, I have exactly the same problem, think it happened after the latest Windows update as was working fine up until that point.
It happened on a saved game I was three seasons in to. I then deleted everything, reinstalled started a new game ad same issue.
Can anyone help? It's really frustrating!
Lars Ricken 2019-10-16 4 points
Got it running fine, ran both the patches, started a new game, made an offer on Anatoli Todorov. Saved and exited, schmoke and a pancake, reloaded the game, all the fixtures had been deleted for all leagues loaded. Anyone else have this problem?

Hi, managed to get the game to run by using win 98 compatibility but it says i need the CD?
I have a virtual drive but this download doesn't come with ISO files to use with it... Please help!
Sam 2019-06-09 0 point
fixed, if you burnt it on a CD/DVD like me, make sure to uninstall Daemon Tools if you have it on your pc, somehow it blocks the game to run, and yeah - don´t forget to run both patches (no need for NO-CD crack) after installation, also check the compatibility modes if you run into problems
Sam 2019-06-08 4 points
How did you manage to make it launch, I mean it loaded fine and all, and I even changed to compatibility win Xp, for it launches and change the resolution and then exit back to windows, tried the patches and it´s still the same problem, even ran it as "administrator", anyone?

You're welcome, Trev. Hopefully you check out my DJ sets on Spotify, like I suggested, next time you are tuning into this fine game.

Mark Hateley eh? Can't believe you still comment here after what you did to me. Just because I wanted to play this and not attend your hotchair meetings with the boys stuck on 01/02 with your cheating tactics to own the AI. There was no need to break my 03/04 disc.. Thankfully Pat Nevin had a NoCD hack for this that he shared with Stevie Archibald who uploaded it to his Dropbox and I was able to get the link from Roland Nilsson who still logs on with Gunnar Halle's password cos his English is still shabby.
How is Wrighty anyway? Say hello to him.

Hello i pached everything,when i start the game every time i have the problem with the "cd not found"

By this point, the series came to a close. After CM 03/04 came Football Manager, which was basically just CM 03/04 with a new skin, updated database and Sega stamped on the front. CM03/04 was ok, but no CM 01/02. Me, Mark Wright and Trevor Brooking still play that today. We go round Trevor's & I play as Coventry, Wrighty plays as Liverpool and Trevor plays as West Ham. Me and Wrighty sometimes read the commentary out loud and add bits of Trevor's piss poor audio commentary from Actua Soccer 2 and Pro Evolution Soccer 2, haha.
