Neji Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Is it the patch or the game throwing up that error? Try running as Admin if you're on Vista. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

snoggers Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 It's got to be a Xp sp3 compatibilty problem,i say this as i've never had a problem with Fm till i had Sp3 on my PC.Then all of a sudden crash dumps galore and other little niggles have since removed sp3 and gone back to 2,touch wood with no problems after having to do a full clean install.
