when i attempt to save i get the message 'error unable to save game' and continue to get this message after several more times trying to save it. How do i save my game? Im not into trying to finish the game in one sitting and without getting killed once, so yeah, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Try running the game in admin mode if you are on WIndows Vista/7...

im using xp but i will try that anyway thank you
*edit* actually just checked am on admin already

You could check the privileges on the folder you've installed the game to, to make sure that the folder can still be written to.

not sure how to do that but save game seems to be working lately. thanks anyways guys :)
