Error -51 when activating via Steam


Recommended Posts

Just downloaded the game on Steam and pasted my activation code...I'm receiving a message saying:

"We were unable to process your unlock request. To receive a new key, please visit sigames.com Error: [-51]

Any idea what to do?

I was just going to post this exact same problem. What can I do to get a new key? Why is this happening?

I made it work.

I went into programe files in my computer. Then the Steam folder -> steamapps -> common -> football manager 2009 -> then did "run as administrator" on the fm09 file (the one with the logo), put my code in, and it worked.

I hope this helps you guys.

you are an absolute hero mate! worked here!!!

No problem guys. Glad I could help. Enjoy the game!

woow do you need to install the game trough steam?

Cuz I installed it first through steam, activated it, deleted it

installed it again but with that other program, and now he's giving me that exact same error

When i got to that map you said, i only find one file: runprocess.vdf

Now what? ;( Goddamn activation program.. no fun at all..
