I don't know how you all guys have problems with older games on the new win10.

After installing win10 just install every net framework available from Microsoft site and you should be fine.
Of course you will need to install DirectX also... But really these steps are so called "must do it".

That's it, I hope I menage to help.


I only had problem with the editors, fix it by installing old net framework 1.0 version.
Talking about it, when system shows error about not supported or something similar just close installation from task manager, doing this you keep installed files on your system.

This is a newer direct X (executeable) file that is newer than madden 08 and has all the backward compatible files needed for older games....

Hello all. I've run into an error seen here:

viewtopic.php?t=18298

I cannot edit secdrv.sys on my computer, because it is not on my computer. My computer.old is now gone, so I cannot get it from there either. I cannot use microsoft answers, as my account has for some odd reason been blocked from using microsoft answers (which makes me really pissed off, because it's the account I use for my computer, and microsoft won't lift a finger to fix it, and I cannot switch accounts on my computer, or even replace accounts. I even tried a full clean wipe, but the account was still stuck there. They tell me to simply make another account.)

I'm having problems saving games and franchises. Just says "there was an error while saving" or some such. Running Win10, game is running the latest FF mod. Help?

Your game may be corrupted, either from rosters, settings or something else like a windows update.....backup your my docs madden 08 folder to a usb stick and reinstall madden is my best suggestion....or another one is you could just defrag your hard drive and hope that windows restores any fragmented madden files to it's original location....this works occasionally for games like madden or nba2k.....so may be worth a shot...but if all else fails, reinstall madden and the mod.....then load the default roster and also try saving if it saves you know either your madden was corrupted or there was a problem with your roster which can cause save errors as well....

This is now solved, gave a workaround solution and it's working for Aurorans. Thanks -U77

I get an issue on a new Windows 10 laptop where I can load Madden fine. But when I actually try to play a game, Madden crashes before it enters the stadium. Any ideas? Any help? I would be grateful for anything.

I'm having a tough time personally right now, and this game has been a staple of my life for a few years. Not being able to properly run it is another kick in the groin.
