Steven Davis Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 I got FM09 through the post today, I installed it, then when i try it, I get a message from Microsoft Windows saying: Football Manager 2009 has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. Close Program. How do I fix this problem?

Glenn Wakeford Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Are you patched to 9.2.0? Do you have the latest direct x/graphics card drivers/java? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven Davis Posted February 10, 2009 Author Share Posted February 10, 2009 Typical, now when I try to click on it, it says the game is unavailable. Any help? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOriginalJez Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 I expect that's a case of it's already running, restarting and/or checking for and closing any existing fm.exe running processes should fix that. You didn't say if you'd patched - if you haven't patching up to 9.1 is essential, 9.2 preferable as they both contain a lot of bug fixes and you may find, if you haven't tried it already, it fixes your problem. Also do a google for 'microsoft direct x' and download the latest version from microsoft.com and give that a whirl. Skorp, doesn't Java install with FM? Or at least it did a couple of fms ago.

RDXCougar8173 Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 if its updated in steam then it will automatically be patched to 9.2 and go here for latest direct x update http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=5493F76A-6D37-478D-BA17-28B1CCA4865A&displaylang=en and here for latest java http://www.java.com/en/download/index.jsp Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
