Hi, Derek. I'm glad to see that things are still thriving for you.

I recently bought a new HP notebook with dual core 2.4Ghz CPU's and 3Gb of memory, so I thought I'd try to get this game going again.

I did a fresh install of the DVD version of UCCE, then applied the 2.0 patch.

It seems that the saves are not taking. When I try a Save with Restore, it takes me to the save profile screen and I enter a name. When I get back to the main screen and click on RESTORE, the slots are all empty.

When I try a Save with RESUME. it takes me to the main screen. When I click on RESUME, it brings me to the new game screen.

When I try to save a CONFIG and exit the game, when I restart it the original configs are restored.

Any ideas on what's happening?

No clue. That v2.0 has been in testing for almost a year before being released. You may have a botched v2.0 upgrade. I'd start over. Also make sure that the SAVE folder actually exists. If it doesn't, that could be the problem.

I got it working now. I did another clean install. I'm also running as administrator.
