Grado Posted November 4, 2010 Author Share Posted November 4, 2010 Deleted the cache folder and now playing the game. Thank you fraz. Apparently i had played the fm 2009 demo so deleted everything in the roaming folder to do with fm 2009 and it works perfectly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrazT Posted November 4, 2010 Share Posted November 4, 2010 Unless I am mistaken, your f drive is the floppy drive or external hard drive and shouldnt be anything to do with the game installation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
