Elrithral Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 The product key from the manual. You would have had to activate it initially anyway, so wherever you got it from first time round. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gashead235 Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 okay, i have typed that in and now it comes up saying: 'We're sorry but this installation of FM09 certificate could not be acheived for the following reasons: The application was unable to connect to the internet. Please check your connection.' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopper99 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Oh dear mate, that sounds frustrating. I think there's an FAQ or known issues thread around near the top of the forum that may be worth a look. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elrithral Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Are you trying to run it through Steam? I've installed though Steam, do I have to run the game through Steam each time I want to play?No you don't, you can create a shortcut to Football Manager 2009 without having to use Steam. Go to: C:\Program Files\Steam\Steamapps\Common\Football Manager 2009\ and right click the fm.exe file and choose "send to desktop (create shortcut)" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PRO Manager Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Sorry to hijack this thread but I didnt want to start a new one just for this. How come I didnt have to use my key?
