Help getting the game to work please


Recommended Posts

this is from the known issues and solutions FAQ:

ERROR: Cannot run game:Failed to set up graphics system

Fix: Please download the following update from the Microsoft Direct X SDK: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=5493F76A-6D37-478D-BA17-28B1CCA4865A&displaylang=en

You should also check that you are running the latest graphics driver, you can do this by visiting the computer manufacturer website, or by visiting the graphics card manufacturing website.

I have downloaded this but I dont know where I need to extract it to? Could somebody help me please?

well i wasnt sure where to put it so I guessed there, and it started extracting and it was asking me whether i wanted to replace files as they already existed, so i said yes to all assuming this must be the right files being updated, and now when i try and load up football manager nothing happens. On the known issues and solutions I would have thought that it would explain where to put this?

That was what I was thinking too so more than likely that means that you can extract it anywhere. Have you tried clicking on any of the extracted files to see what happens?
