Not sure what OS your on, but if vista just try right clicking then run as administrator on the same fm icon.

Go to C:\Program Files\Steam\Steamapps\Common\Football Manager 2009

Then right click on fm.exe. And run as administrator. Then press ok.

Should be ok then.

Thanks, updated my network frame working now. :-)

Ive tried to run fm through both the steam and the other option, each time i come to run the game an error message appears saying "football manager is already running". Anybody have any ideas on how to fix this?

Net framework. If you didn't update that, you'd of got a error code like- 0xc0150002

.

Glad its working for you now, enjoy the game.

Daraul.

Ctrl+Alt+delete

Then go to processes, and find fm.exe. Highlight it and press end process.

Then confirm it, then try the game.

Yeah i tried that earlier, same thing happens. Trying to run it through the steam again now and getting the "This game is currently unavailable,please try again at another time".eee hey i love a good install challenge, nothing better.

Daraul. Log out of steam.

Then go to:

C:\Program Files\Steam

And delete Clientregistry.blob.

Then log back in, and try FM2009.

i have done the first bit ok but its

' then right click on fm.exe. and run as administrator then ok.'

i dont understand, i have right clicked on everything and there is nothing that lets me 'run as administrator'

thanks for your help by the way, as you might have notced computers are not my strong point!!!!

Im sorry, it should be called Run as - then select Administrator. Then click Ok.

Deleted it, tried again and getting the same response. Checked the program files again and the clientregistry has re-appeared. The "football manager is already running" message i recieved also appearedwhen i was halfway through the 2008 game and could no longer play that.

Yeh clientregistry is basically a cache file.

Click Run as administrator. Then turn off restricted access. Then you must enter your administrator username and password. Thats why your getting those errors.

turn off restricted acess?

tried administrator username and password still wont load,

thanks for your help but i think i might have to give up

any ideas anyone?

i got this game yesterday but it wont instal on my computer! after following the original prompts from the instal screen it trys to instal but just come back with some problems occured during instalation, please refer to the istalation log for details. But wheres the instal log? so i tried again this morning and now nothing happens when i put the cd in. Ive tried manually installing it but still same response comes back. anyone know whats wrong?

hello luk i dont know much about computers i just want to set my game up but everytime i get to the instalation windown it appears for 1 second then dissapeares and doesn't come back and i just can't do it does anybody have any advice that would mean so much bcaus this game is all ive wanted to play

hi, bought the game, and everytim i try to verify it, my anti virus deletes the file that steam verify claiming "suspicious behaviour". how do i get round this? its really starting to annoy now.

I dont know if this would help but I had a problem where my display adaptor crashed whenever the fm load screen was supposed to come up but if you goto start-controlpanel-display-settings-advanced-troubleshoot-turn your hardware acceleration to zero and tick enable box.

I hope this helps people because I never thought this was gonna get sorted but it has.
