Football Manager kept crashing on me after about an hours play. So i backed up my save file, uninstalled the game and then installed it again. However, now when i load it up, go to load my game, it wont load. A message says i have Dangerously Low Memory and to free some, then the next message says it is closing FM, which it promptly does. Ive no idea what it means by this and am puzzled. I play WoW and that works fine, does FM really take up more memory? So how do i free some if thats what i have to do?
Cheers

Just create a batch file with lots of net stop commands for all the services you know are safe to shut down.
Then just put a shortcut to it somewhere and run it before playing games.
If you are feeling even more bored/geeky, create another batch with all the same services but "NET START" to start them again after gaming.
Or I suppose you could just get that enditall program someone mentioned..

I wont.
Don't mention it
I've been looking for a program like that Bullett, ta.
It's not a sure-fire solution, but you could always download a program called EndItAll which closes every non-vital process on the computer, freeing up RAM and reducing CPU usage.
Google should point you in the right direction, it's free too.
