bboy123 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Basically it activated after the 1000th attempt and it booted up the game fine....but i accidentely closed the game at the start screen. I dont have any icons on my desktop or in my start-menu??? When I try double clicking on the football manager 09 icon on steam it opens up the SoftAnchor online activation again and I enter the code in but now it tells me: "The unlock key is already active. To purchase an unlock key visit sigames" please please help me, what is going on. How do i get into the game? Ive tried everything, ive looked in the program files i cannot find the game and it wont let me activate because ive already unlocked :( Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

inmotion_slb Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 so there are two steps to this basically. 1. try after 500 times and validate your game finally 2. play again later after shutting the game and it will say you need a new key..... im still in step 1. where else can you get this much fun for 36 quid? its so amazing, im having a blast Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkC1984 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Have you tried looking in the Sports Interactive folder in Program Files? (C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager...) Also, generally in the Start Menu there is a folder with the game in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lofty_mufc Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 i got mine working but then it froze so i had restart it and when i tried to start the game again softanchor came up and asked the same as what yours did, seriously annoyed now :| whosever idea it was to make it that you had to install the game like this seriously is a complete t**t Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
s6hammer Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Im having the same problem. This is a ****ing joke! Anyone from SI or SEGA able to help? Bit of advice to anyone currently running the game, don't close it as you won't be able to start it again! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
