Football Genius Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 I have a netbook that runs windows 7. I bought the game from steam and installed it with no problems at all. Then when i go to start it nothing happens then i'll click on it again and it says the game is alreay running. I've updated Direct X, re-installed the game and steam, restarted my computer. I dont know what else to do. anything would help Thank you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butters76 Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Ctrl+alt+del to enter taskmanager. there are some tabs on top of the window, choose processes. Then locate FM10.exe in the list and terminate the process. Start FM10 again, should work fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football Genius Posted November 4, 2009 Author Share Posted November 4, 2009 Ive been looking everywhere but it seems that people get theirs to start but i cant even do that.. When i hit ctrl alt del i see it in process as fm.exe like it started but it never actually comes up.. Do i need to change settings or download something? Its really frustrating to buy a game and not being able to play Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cadangan Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 i experienced the same issue with my aspire one d250 2 GB RAM.. but now fm 2010 is playable on my netbook, and i think it's better than the 2009 version.. dont know whether this would work, i've changed the windowed mode code from -small_screen in desktop shortcut as to be shown like this : "C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2010\fm.exe" --small_screen --windowed although with windowed mode, with an application called astray plus for netbook, i can change the resolution from 1024x600 to 1024x768 or higher with some scroll up and down to get the normal full screen view in windowed mode. and maybe you can also download this file : http://downloads.sigames.com/download/saAuditMD.zip unzip and paste to C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2010.
