Troubleshooting - Questions and Answers


Q1.) 	The in game match modes are very slow and jerky.

A1.) 	There could be two reasons for this. The first is that you
	are playing on a slow machine P166; or the install you have 
	chosen requires you to load a lot of graphics off the CD.

	1.) If you are playing on a P166 machine it is recommended that
	you play the match in either the results or brief highlights
	mode.
	2.) Reinstall the game and use the custom option to install
	more files onto the hard drive. As a general rule of thumb
	the more files you copy to the hard drive during installation
	the faster the game will run.
	3.) The game will not run if you have insufficient space on
	your Hard Drive. You are recommended to have at least 200 MB of
	free Hard Drive space on your Boot drive, this is usually the C
	Drive. The more free space you have the smoother and quicker
	the game will run. Any less than 200 MB, and the game will not
	run at all.

Q2.) 	The game does not work at all.

A2.) 	The most common reason for the game not working is that the 
	DirectX6 drivers are not certified.
	You can check that these drivers are certified by checking in
	c:\Program Files\Directx\setup\ then run the DXSETUP.EXE file.
	This will report if the drivers are working correctly.
	Premier Manager 99 will automatically install Directx6 onto 
	your machine when it installs the game. If you are still 
	experiencing problems then contact the hardware manufacturer.

Q3.)	How do I use the Replay Buttons?

A3.) 	All the Replay Buttons have a separate key designation.

	Play Forward		Ctrl + Right Arrow Key
	Play Backwards		Ctrl + Left Arrow Key
	Stop			Space
	Fast Forward		Right Arrow Key
	Rewind			Left Arrow Key
	Go To Start		Up Arrow Key
	Go To End		Down Arrow Key

Q4.)	I have a Power VR card, and the game will not run in View mode
 	or Highlights modes?

A4.) 	Unfortunately PM99 does not support PowerVR cards, therefore
 	you will have to disable the Power VR card for the game to run
 	in these modes. 

	To disable your PowerVR card, follow the following procedure.

		1) Click Start and go to Settings, then select Control
 		Panel.
		2) In the Control Panel select Display.
		3) Select the Tab for your Power VR card.
		4) Then UN-Tick "Enable PowerVR Hal".
		5) Then select Apply and the game will now run
		normally.

Q5.)	When I remove the CD from the CD ROM, I get an error message
 	"Application Cannot Continue", what do I do?

A5.)	If you do not have a Maximum install, then the CD should not be
 	removed from the CD ROM.

Q6.)	I have a 2 MB Video Card and I am experiencing graphical
  	problems in View mode and Highlights modes?

A6.)	Due to hardware restrictions it is suggested that you view the
 	game in Software modes only if you are using a 2 MB Video Card.

Q7.)	In View Mode, I just get a Black Screen but can hear the in
 	game sounds?

A7.)	If you are using a resolution in excess of 1024 * 768, and you
 	experience this problem, then your graphics card is unable to
 	support this resolution. Therefore it is suggested that you
 	select a lower resolution.


Please NOTE:

When you are in the middle of a match, if you click on the Exit Icon
you will quit the game completely, and not the current match.
