FM 2009 Problem

[nextman1]

Hi,

I have a problem. I have installed FM2009 but when I click the shortcut for the game, nothing comes up.

I had a look in Windows Task Manager and the 'fm.exe' file is running so the game runs but it does not show.

Can anyone please help me?

maybe its jsut not showing on your taskbar, try hitting alt+tab to see if its open

Thanks for your reply..I tried alt+tab but it doesn't work. Its definitely not on the taskbar then but i know the game is running in the background.

Try running the game with the --reset_preferences command line option.

That doesn't work either
