trekman Posted October 9, 2010 Share Posted October 9, 2010 Whats running in the background at the same time as fm? Maybe something is causing a conflict. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
addygoel Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 i v tried opening with my screen resolution set to a lesser value. i also tried running in 640 x something compatibility mode. when i do that my screen resolution changes and fm runs in processes but it doesn't actually play. as in if u look up under processes in task manager it shoes fm.exe using like 225000 or something kb like that. and i have tried re installing. something like this happened with my age of empires 2. but that was long time ago and on some other computer. also this game runs completely fine with excellent graphics( as in we know how good fm graphics are ) but the 2d view was smooth on the other computer that i have. . so i dont understand what the problem is. and no nothing is running in the background also. Thanks for trying to help me trekaman and ishu Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekman Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Do you have a virus scanner running and is it setup to ignore the folders that fm uses? I read on a website once that if you have a scanner and it scans the folders that fm uses while fm is running it can sometimes cause problems. Thats the only other thing I can suggest to try if you are all absolutely 100% sure your drivers are up to date. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekman Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 PLEASE, GOT A NEW COMPUTER AND EVERYTHING. Make a patch or something that makes it work. It's been over a month since release now. Just because you have a new computer doesn't mean that the drivers are all up to date. Its always a good idea I think when you get a new computer to first update all drivers.
