ahmufcwafc Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 Have you tried this: Other XML Errors Delete the following folder: XP: C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2009\settings Vista: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2009\settings This may solve some issues regarding the XML Errors Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOriginalJez Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 if reinstalling FM doesn't help then I wouldn't go to reinstalling windows, that's a bit of a leap! Do you still get the problem in another game? ie, is it just happening to one saved game, or does it happen every time you run fm? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thormation Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Try this: - 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.

Hey i have tried doing this but in my target box it says '"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steam.exe" -applaunch 10540' when i had the reset_preferences thing and click apply it says invalid target.

serek Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Bumping this because I have encountered the same problem in FM2011 and deleting Settings helped. I have lost my save game though. Is there any good way to prevent this from happening in the future? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
160vvc Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Thormations advice worked for me. After maybe 3 months of playing i kept getting error messages, then had to reinstall windows and the game to correct it. Saved games were transfered to external hdds then re added so ive still got the same game. Now using Thormations advice i no longer have to wipe the hdd and reinstall windows so thanks Thormation buddy. Peace m8. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
