T0MMY51NGH Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Hi , i recently installed my fm2005 disk on my windows 7 pc , however it was not running smoothly and not showing up and messing up my display (as my laptop is connected at a tv monitor) . So i was wondering will my fm2006 work on windows 7? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lambs Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 I assume you have tried it in compatible mode? As for older versions, the manufacturers can not guarantee that an old version of FM will work with a new operating system. Hopefully some one may have got it working and can tell you if it is possible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Lambs Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 Right click on the icon you usually click to start the game and you should find an option to run in compatability mode.

trekman Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 If your having display problems that would suggest (to me anyway!) that you need to update 1. your graphics card drivers 2. install the latest version of direct x and java. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
