dav_58 Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Hey, My FM 09 game keeps crashing with the following message: XML Parsing Error- Not well-formed (invalid token) at line 1 of default.xml Does anybody know what this means!!? I installed the game when it came out in Nov and hadnt had any problems until this message came up yesterday. Its happened 3/4 times now!! Would i be best unistalling the game and then reinstalling it!? cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahmufcwafc Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 I can't play the game due to an XML parsing error If you have a shortcut on your desktop you can do the following: Right-click on the FM shortcut. Choose "Properties" from the pop-up menu. In the "Target" field, add the --reset_preferences command line option after "fm.exe", so it should look like this:"C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2009\fm.exe" --reset_preferences Press OK and then try to run the game as normal, using the shortcut. You'll want to remove the command after you run the game, as otherwise it will continue to reset your preferences every time you launch. If you don't have a shortcut you can make one and then perform the instructions on the shortcut you've made. If you purchased and installed the game through Steam you should be able to find the fm.exe in the following directory:C:/Program Files/Steam/SteamApps/Common/Football Manager 2009/ If you purchased and installed the game from a boxed DVD copy you should be able to find the fm.exe in the following directory:C:/Program Files/Sports Interactive/Football Manager 2009/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dav_58 Posted December 7, 2008 Author Share Posted December 7, 2008 My target field at the mo reads - "C:\Program Files\Steam\Steam.exe" -applaunch 10540. Should i just add the 'reset_preferences' bit after that? Sorry i'm not the best with computers!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahmufcwafc Posted December 7, 2008 Share Posted December 7, 2008 Yes just add that bit on at the end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
