daylight Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Would help alot if you posted your pc specs. edit-also say how many leagues you are running and what level. When asking question's like this try and give as much info as possible so people can help you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

daylight Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 will try. Ok press start on the bottom left hand corner,in the search box type "dxdiag"it will give you lots of information either copy/paste it or type in here the most important parts. Give your CPU(computer processor) your graphics card how much RAM you have. that will be enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

daylight Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 It will be your processor that is slowing you down,you are only running 3 league's but what size data base are you running? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
djeddiehobin Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 Large, because i never had a problem with it in fm08 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daylight Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Yeah but this is 2009 I would try medium and see how that goes,there is a new patch due soon and you never know what that can hold in terms of improving preformance,for now I would try a medium data base and see if you get any improvement,tbh your specs are a bit below the reccommended specs so it is worth while trying from the bottom and working your way up to get a good balance.

djeddiehobin Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 Say i have to use a small database, will this make a large amount of players unavailable to me? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daylight Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Yes it will cut down your choices,then again it will also cut down the choices that other teams have aswell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
djeddiehobin Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 do you have rough idea how much it would cost to get this pc upgraded to the right specs? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daylight Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 do you have rough idea how much it would cost to get this pc upgraded to the right specs? If you want me to be brutal I would say not to bother,you could pick up a good 2nd hand pc for better money,the pc you are using would need every aspect upgraded so it did not bottleneck at other parts and tbh not worth it. Save your cash and either get a new budget system or a better 2nd hand system,both these would be a better choice. If the only game you play is FM then you could get a 2nd hand system that would run it nps for around the 200 pound mark. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
djeddiehobin Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 Thanks for advice, think im gonna stick with fm 08 for now atleast i will get full enjoyment out of it till i get a better pc, the only bad thing is on 08 i cant seem to get a tactic to work for my team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daylight Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 nps mate sorry I couldnt help more,for a tactic you could try the tactics forum and download a good tactic for fm08 or indeed start a new thread and ask for 1,people are normally only to willing to help Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smellfire Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Wait till after xmas and buy the yellow free adds, be loads of cheap decent 2nd hand pcs. I picked up a dual core for 120 quid the other day, just the tower. Dads well happy with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
