Daley Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Guys I really need someone's help! I have just bought a new PC and after loading the o/s etc etc I went to load FM2008. Then my problems started, for some reason the PC is not recognising the CD and so it is not Auto Running. Even when I double click on the DVDRW drive to start it thinks about it then just stops. I have backedup all my files to an external HDD and can load the game from that but it isn't patched and so won't run any of my saved games! I know it's only 6 weeks (he says sweating at the thought of 6 weeks without FM!) until 2009 arrives but I will go mad! The Katie & Peter show is on soon and if I'm not careful the mrs will suggest me sitting next to her on the sofa to watch it! HELP ME PLEASE! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pope of Pot, King of Nothi Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 Wait a second. Did you confirm that the patch fixed the disc reading issue? If not, chances are, it's time to fork out £20 and get a new DVD reader/writer. It's a common enough problem - sometimes you'll be playing one minute, and the next, the dvd's refuse to be read. In even weirder circumstances, some dvd's will read and others not. O the woe of Benq, aye? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
