hillc2017 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Hi I have purchased football manager 2005 and installed it on a Windows 7 laptop, Installing the game absolutely fine but the game wont load up from the desktop screen or from the folder that has been created, I have tried to run it as an administrator still wont work and now stuck as to what to do, also tried to run it with a different comparability program but that has not worked either, Data base editor loads up absolutely fine. If any one can assist me that would be great , if this has been discussed on here before i apologize i am a new member to the website. Thanks Chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrazT Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 From memory you may need to have possibly Java and maybe even directX installed for older games Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hillc2017 Posted April 26, 2020 Author Share Posted April 26, 2020 well thanks for your time to reply if it doesn’t work then guess il shall have to upgrade my laptop lol. When you loaded it onto Windows 10 did you have to change anything in the background setting to get it to run once installed ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try right clicking on the desktop icon and select "run as administrator" from the drop down menu Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
