nige66 Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 I've tried using steam and uniloc about 20 times each. with steam all the folders on program files seem to be empty, but thinking this is probably as they are run through steam. I have authenticated this one, but it won't run with unilock it doesn't ever ask me for a key been trying to find out all day if not having a sound card will stop the game loading/installing. Just bought a new base unit and not got a sound card in it yet. the rest of the spec is covered when I go to start the game I just get a football manager 2009 has stopped working box Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Neil Brock Posted November 16, 2008 Administrators Share Posted November 16, 2008 Right Nige, do the following. First of all uninstall the game and Steam Then clear your cache and registry files How to delete your Cache files Windows XP: 1. Open “My Computer” 2. Navigate to : “Documents and Settings\<Username>\Application Data\ 3. Go into the “Sports Interactive” Folder. 4. Delete the “Football Manager XX” Folder. Wndows Vista: 1. Click “Start” 2. Click your username on the start Menu 3. Click on “AppData” and then “Roaming” 4. Go into the “Sports Interactive” Folder 5. Delete the “Football Manager XX” Folder. Mac OSX 1. Open Finder. 2. Select <User> 3. Navigate to Library\Caches\Sports Interactive 4. Remove the “Football Manager XX” Folder. How to Delete your Registry Files Windows XP: 1. Click “Start” 2. Click "Run" 3. Type in "Regedit" 4. Go into the HKEY_CURRENT_USER Folder 5. Go into the 'Software Folder' 6. Delete the Sports Interactive Folder 7. Go into the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Folder 8. Go into the 'Software Folder' 9. Delete the Sports Interactive Ltd Folder Windows Vista: 1. Click “Start” 2. Type in the search box "Regedit" 3. Go into the HKEY_CURRENT_USER Folder 4. Go into the 'Software Folder' 5. Delete the Sports Interactive Folder 6. Go into the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Folder 7. Go into the 'Software Folder' 8. Delete the Sports Interactive Ltd Folder Then I want you to delete your Java and update that How to Update your version of Java 1. Uninstall any version of Java you have first. 2. Visit this website: http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp 3. Find the correct version for your Operating system and download/install from here. Then I want you to make sure your drivers are up to date How to Update your Graphics Drivers This depends on your graphics drivers. Some Computer manufacturers insist you download drivers from their own sites. Please refer to the website of your computer manufacturer before reporting issues with graphics drivers. Here are the websites of the largest graphics cards and chipset manufacturers: Nvidia (Gforce/Legacy) http://www.nvidia.co.uk/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-uk ATI (Radeon) http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html Intel (Onboard Chipsets) http://downloadcenter.intel.com/ There are other manufacturers of graphics card drivers. If you can not find drivers for these cards they may have been discontinued. Please ask in this case as we may still be able to help. Now I want you to re-install either from disc or Steam - but only one of these NOT both. Then try to enter your activation code See if it works and let me know. Follow the steps exactly as I have written. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
