I had installed FM11 on my machine in January and then uninstalled it.

Now, I wanted to play it again so I installed the game again and updated it to the 11.3 patch (latest one).

I tried starting the game but is got up to the text screen right after the various football leagues logos.

I tried to run it in compatibility mode, did not help. Admin mode, no go. Deleted the folder of the game in my Documents, no go.

I'm at a loss here as my machine already ran the game without a problem before. :S

My machine is a Dell XPS 17 laptop, i7-740QM, with 4Gb ram and a GT445M card. Running on Win 7 premium 64bit.

Anyone has an idea what could be wrong?
 
Me too. I have played FM 2011 for 1 year approx.

Its getting interesting - from job centre to ECC contenders.

Yesterday when I tried to load it went to the "load game"/"last game" etc screen

And then quit.

No game loaded = no database issue (?)

same CD/DVD

so computer? I uninstalled and re-installed, no change.

someone out there knows the answer, please share.
 
OK. I can answer my own question.

I quit every program except Finder (I am on a Mac)

and it loaded. This after re-starting in various degrees

of safe controls, checking the internet for stuff etc,

which may have proved too much for my massively

tweaked machine. (I doubt it)


...umm that's it. If that's what I have to do every time

it's a major pain, which makes me less likely to play

but...etc
