MarkMan123 Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Just playing a bit of FM07 on my old laptop and when I untick full screen it attempts to go into window mode but then says 'Changing the screen settings failed. Make sure your system supports the settings'. I then tried adding '-small_screen -windowed' to the shortcut target line but then I get a message saying 'The name ___ specified in the target box is not valid. Make sure the path and file name are correct.' Does anybody know how to fix this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welshace Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 make sure the -small screen line has no spaces.... and your doing it without the ' right? alternatively copy this exactly how it is into the target area "C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2007\fm.exe" -small_screen -windowed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure the path and file name are correct. This is so annoying Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went and got a drink, came back up and it worked! Too my relief that is! Thanks for your answer and patience Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
