For those of you who have the Downloadable version, and purchased it prior to the 1.3 release on September 14, 2004, you should download the Version 1.3 Download and reinstall the game. This will replace your existing version, and will not affect your license for the game. DO NOT download this version if you own the CD version of the game.

The download version and the CD version are completely incompatible products, though they contain the exact same function.

Updating the game does not prevent you from continuing careers, but since it contains the latest schedules and conference alignments, teams will end up playing schedules that don't fit in with the alignments from a career begun before the update, as they will not change conferences.
