WinXP, 2.66gigCPU, 512RAM, radeon 9500 Pro/9700 (latest driver), 1.45 patch. Today, I loaded my last saved game (from 8 saved yesterday). After loading, video went bonkers. I shut down normally, seeing the partially blocked menu through the quivering mess. Desk top screen also bonkers. Shut down computer (all the way off). Restarted CPU, XP & game. Eight of 16 saved games in the load window now have new .tmp extentins: for example, "Quicksave1(2).tmp". ".tmp" games start to load, then kick me out of the game back to the desktop. Video OK during this. Earlier saved games (9 thru 17 - without the new .tmp extension) work fine but that's 5 game play hours, 2 lvl 3 dungeon quests completed and lotsa good stuff lost! (DK luck 7, Hero 48) Tried all kinds of corrective stuff (drivers, set up, reconfig). No joy. Crikey, is there any way to recover these files? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" />
