putting it's savegames in
Windows Vista Beta 2. Some of the Documents folders is protected so i cannot
access them eventhough i'm Administrator.

It's in the same folder as in win xp...i.e. Documents. Click start then
documents in the upper right part.

I don't get any error-messages; and now i noticed that all Document folder's
Windows Vista Beta 2 doesn't have any savegames for GTA San Andreas,
eventhough i could save a game in and reload it. Maybe it's due to the fact
that i installed Windows Vista Beta 2 on my l:-drive on my computer. It's on
the same drive that Windows XP is installed (C:\-drive), and i'm simply
running GTA San Andreas from that drive in Windows Vista Beta 2 without
problems. Could it be that the savegames is on the c:\-drive? The games that
i save in Windows XP is not touched..Hope this is understandable!

Rasmus Bertelsen

Try looking in your documents folder if its not there try search the
harddrive for a

GTASAst1.b file (should be the name on the first savefile so be sure you
have saved in slot 1)

box for UAC....i don't have to give permission now, i can do pretty much what
i want. Be carefull though don't click ok on anything before you are sure
what you're doing. I'm learning as i go along too.

In the GTA San Andreas User files you'll see a file called GTASASF8.b, this
is my saved game, yours might be a different name, but this is a saved
game/file

Unfortunately that directory isn't there, probably due to the fact that
didn't install GTA SA in Windows Vista,
but in Windows XP, evenso i could play the game and save the game and reload
it. Still i cannot find the directory
where the savegame files is kept!
