jdubsnz Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Hi all, I posted something similar but just wanted to check a few things. I have tried everything possible from searches and advice I have seen other given, etc to get the 3D match engine to stop being jerky, but nothing improves it even slightly - FM09 worked fine by the way. Here are my specs, any help ASAP would be awesome! Base processor PentiumD 920 (P) DC 2.8 GHz *800 MHz front side bus *Socket 775 Chipset Intel 945P Memory Installed 1 GB (2 x 512) Speed supported PC2-4200 MB/sec Type 240 pin, DDR2 SDRAM Video Graphics GeForce 6200SE * 64 MB DDR memory * I/O Ports: VGA, Composite, S-Video Hard drive *300 GB SATA *7200 rpm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eles Gergo Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 If fm 09 worked fm 10 will work the same way or better (which i noticed it does ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hursty2 Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Maybe an extra 1gb of RAM would be good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrazT Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Your graphics card is below the min spec but if 09 worked and you have the latest drivers and directX it should be OK as long as you keep the number of leagues and database small. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aha! Cheers for the replies - I might be about to ask a very stupid question, so be gentle! I always thought that the number of leagues and database that you load might slow down load times, but wouldn't have any effect on the 3D ME. Are you saying that if I load a small database that the ME should improve? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought that the size of the game that you load might slow done load times, but wouldn't have any effect on the 3D ME. Are you saying that if I load a small database that the ME should improve? No he is not The database size will only effect the processing speeds.

jdubsnz Posted November 4, 2009 Author Share Posted November 4, 2009 cheers guys. looks like I am buying me a new computer for Christmas! Out in Japan, and will buy the new iMac once it is able to run Windows 7 (in Dec according to Apple) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sthptngomad76 Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Would having a larger number of leagues affect performance on matchdays? It sounds bizarre but game seems to run ok during the week but come matchday buttons (eg go to team talk etc) take forever to respond, sometimes several seconds, with going between the first few prematch screens also taking time. I have a 3ghz Pentium 4 and 2gb ram, and have 14 divisions in 5 countries running. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connor Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 So on the basis of my specs above would you expect the game to run ok? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connor Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Thats the problem, its not, laggy on 3d match engine and going to/from tactics screens. I have heard people say turning anti-virus off may help, but this doesnt appear the case for me... any ideas? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falastur Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Run the game and go to Task Manager (Control-Shift-Escape). On the Processes tab, how much CPU does FM use up in the normal game and how much in the Match Engine? (Football Manager should be fm.exe on the list). On the same screen, do you have any other processes chewing up a lot of CPU? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie543 Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 cheers guys. looks like I am buying me a new computer for Christmas! Out in Japan, and will buy the new iMac once it is able to run Windows 7 (in Dec according to Apple) What the hell why buy a Mac and stick Windows on it bloody pointless save your self some money and buy a decent Windows machine to start with Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
