isuckatfm Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Some more info would help. But as a start:- Put the FM disc in. Cancel the 'autorun' at whatever point it is possible. Right click your CD/DVD drive and select 'Open'. Right click 'setup.exe' (exe may or may not be visible) and select 'Run As Administrator'. Do not tick the option to have the game start once it installs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

isuckatfm Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Uninstall the game and reinstall following the instructions I gave above. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
isuckatfm Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Delete the cache files after you uninstall Vista: C:\Users\<username>\App Data\Roaming\Sports Interactive You'll need to turn on your hidden files and folders to find these, go to a folder and go - 'Tools - Folder Options - View' and make sure 'show hidden files and folders' is selected. Also make sure all traces of FM are removed after the uninstall (I've had to manually delete certain folders in Program Files/Sports Interactive) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jod123 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Search the forums for "White Screen" including the quotation marks.
