No need for apologies Ballbarian. I appreciate the help. I do have vista and I did tranfer the files from a WINDOS XP to the New WIndows vista. The funny thing is IT WORKED before I erased it and instaled it again from the CD. I am afraid it might be something to do with the registry. I tried reinstalling the key file again but did not work.

I also noticed this. When I install from the cd the directory it creates on the C: drive does not contain a savedgames folder. I can see old saved game files when I get in the game but when I try playing them the error pops up. I also tried looking for the files through the windows search engine but the files are nowere to be found. I dont even have a Savedgames folder!!

I create new maps with crazy names and look for the file in the Maps folder but it is not there. I look for the file in a different directory but the system says it does not exist.

What might it be?
