Windowed FM.....

Can anyone help me out? im trying to get fm into a "windowed" screen rather than full screen, but each time i go into my preferences and click it, confirm.. it gives an error.. i've heard of people entering something into the shortcut properties on the desktop but i dunno how to do this... can anyone help me out?

Have a search there's a million threads showing you how to do this.

You need to right-click the shortcut icon for FM08 and select properties from the pop-up menu.

A box will appear on which there is a textbox with the title Tartget:

In that box overwrite everything with the following text:-

"C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2008\fm.exe" --small_screen --windowed

This assumes that FM was installed to the C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2008 directory. If it was installed anywhere else, you need to change the text to match.

Make sure FM isn't running when you do this (although it won't stop you from doing it, you have to start the game again for the change to happen).

thanks dude, appreciate it

I think to have it windowed you need a certain screen resolution. I tried setting my brother's PC up to have it windowed for him, but it said some error and went back to full screen. After changing the screen resolution it works
