d d Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 How strange. I recently broke my laptop so i am using an old dell, which is about 7 years old. So i know i cannot use any of the new fm's (09/10). So i try with an old FM'S like 07/05 and they do not load. Try an old Championship Manger games and they work. My specs are windows xp business and i have pentium 4 2.60 ghz and 512mb ram Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrazT Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 You will need to update all the hardware and graphics drivers, Java and directX Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trekman Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 You will be able to get both the latest directx and java easily enough and they should install without problems. Your graphics card drivers might be a different issue though. Have a look on the manufacturers website to see if the card in your computer is still supported.
