sure:
1. first completely uninstall PCM 07 to do this:
-uninstall from the auto run menu
- delete cyanide folder from Program Files
- delete Pro Cycling Manager 2007 folder from My Documents
- click start > run, type in %appdata% and a window will open. delete the Pro Cycling Manager 2007 folder in there.
2. Reinstall PCM 07
- install pcm 2007
- apply the latest patch after you install (found here: https://www.pcmdai...p?catid=8)
3. Download the DB
- click on the link in the downloads box on the right.
- download the file (it is best to use a download manager such as flashget otherwise downloads can often freeze before they are finished or the downloaded file may be corrupt).
4. Install the DB
- right click on the file you downloaded
- click on Extract files...
- select your Program Files > Cyanide > Pro Cycling Manager 2007 folder and click ok
- let Winrar overwrite all the files
5. Play your game and enjoy

Download patch 1.0.3.1 from the download section and install it by double clicking it and following the directions given to you. Very simple |

still not working. could someone go through part 4 of rodda's explanation in even more detail. i've right clicked on the file and selected extract files, but then i get another big menu that i don't know what to do with.
what does he mean by select programme files? what files and where are they?
cheers |

on the window that opens click on the box next to C: then the box next to Program Files then the box next to Cyanide.
then just click on Pro Cycling Manager 2007 once and click ok
Winrar will prompt you to over write files so click on yes to all.

thanks rodda.
new problem. i've done everything you told me too and it worked fine. however, when i pressd ok, the % bar didn't move at all and a new window called WinRAR Diagnostic messeges popped up and was counting up errors. it keep making that poing noise when something is wrong and kept saying the system cannot find path specified.
any ideas? |
