How do you go about forcing it into windowed mode? Put "-windowed" at the end of the shortcut target, so it looks like:

"C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2008\fm.exe" -windowed

(or wherever you installed FM)

If it can't force it that way, then I'm not sure about it. What graphics chipset are you using in the laptop?

"C:\Program Files\Sports Interactive\Football Manager 2008\fm.exe" -small_screen -windowed
