Status: offline 		Maybe I'm just thick, but the first thing I did after downloading was start banging my head against the wall because I couldn't save nor change the resolution. Read several threads before it occurred to me that the latest download isn't patched up.

So in case it helps somebody else, remember to apply the latest patch, makes sure you have a folder named "Save" in the "Dat" folder, and then you can go about the business of fooling around with the resolution and saving games.

I don't know if it makes a difference, but I installed the game outside of the default "C:Program Files" location. This helps some older games function better in W7.

Cheers.
