Nemesis Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 did u use steam to validate the game if so it will run through that application, so look in the my games screen on steam, or create a shortcut by going to program files/steam/steamapps/common/football manager 2009 Hope this helps Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serpico Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 found how to open it but gotta activate now but apparently something wrong with my connection, thats odd coz im still ONLINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's the FM saying that it can't find the activation server. It's guessing there's a problem with the connection, but actually the problem is at the activation server. Apparently it went down again under strain. Make a cup of coffee and try again in a bit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
