What should I do if I receive 'Football Manager is running dangerously low on Memory' error message

If you receive an out of memory/running dangerously low on memory message at any point, please follow the instructions below:

Often this error message can be related to custom graphics, so we would suggest for the time-being removing all custom additions to the game and seeing if you encounter the same issue. If you no longer have the issue with the graphics removed, try adding them back slowly bit by bit to try and determine which exact graphics pack has caused the issue for you.  

If you're still having issues even without any custom graphics, please try the following:

Make sure your Anti-Virus isn’t interfering with Steam or FM as this can cause problems when installing or launching the game
- Remove cache and Preferences folders

Verify the game files 
- Make sure your Windows Updates, DirectX and Net Framework are installed and up to date


Suppose you have completed all of the above without resolving your issue. In that case, we suggest you also check how many leagues you're running and what sized database, as these could also affect the processing performance.

If you find nothing above helps, please submit a support ticket and our team will try to help.
