jali30 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Hi i just got FM2009 today for PC... i have had no problems installing the game and it runs well... BUT there's a huge problem that simply prevents me from playing it: The "Confirm" button doesn't work in the News, when they ask you to state your season expectations. It just doesn't work. I click on it, but nothing happens. And of course I can't continue, since the news does require confirmation. If I go on holiday and skip it, then the Press Conference "Attend" button won't work. I don't know, maybe it's a common bug, please help me!!!! Is there any way to fix it? All the other elements work, but playing is impossible since you can't confirm anything. i have tried new skins as i thought it might be that but nothing... i am running v9.2.0 on vista if thats helps... any help would be great because i really want to play this game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jali30 Posted February 15, 2009 Author Share Posted February 15, 2009 yea i will try installing ti for mac but if its the cd i might just get the same error? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jod123 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 FMRTE won't work on the mac. As you have the game already you can download the game from steam without paying any extra so if there is something wrong with your disc than that gets that out of the equation.
