when ever i try to load a game it says the save game is corrupted!!
i tried downloading a save game file and still it says it is corrupted!!
i even tried reinstalling the game; still corrupted!!

I still need help!!

I have not heard of the retail copy of the game having this problem, however i have heard about the warez version with this problem. Did you buy this game or did you DL it off the net.

Put the extracted files in the appropriate directory, make a short cut of the .exe file on your desktop and play....

I have a retaail version of San Andreas , I bought it at Sam Goody.I have the same problem with corrupted save games.I tried uninstalling then reinstalling and it still comes up the same.I even tried downloading a save game and inserting it into the game , same thing with the corrupted file.nOTHING SEEMS TO WORK , ANY IDEAS?

Did you try any of the solutions above before posting for help???

people plz any1!! wen i open my game, well after the credits it crashes totally plz!! does any1 know a soultion or smthn plzzzz?????

i had a similar problem but i solved it easily enough. all i did was copy my saved files to my documents or any other folder. deleted them from the save game directory. opened the game. started a new game. played for about 2mins. exited. copied over the old save files and then opened the game again. loaded my files and continued playing... somehow i don't think it will work for everyone but you can try it if you want...

What do you actually mean??? The funny thing is the game works in my bro's com... which has a lower spec. than mine.

Mine's is a copied version from the original... the only thing diffrent is that I use the No-CD patch... and I've tried editting the registry... which creates a new folder where the save games should be stored... but it still doesn't!!! Any suggestions???

Guitar Freak Tell me what you did in registry. I know making another save folder will work but tell me the registry key for it.(Where is it located)

Nah... I decided to use the download suggested by this post to do the registry thing for me... but it still didn't work. Tell me how do to do the "making a new save folder" thing.

can you tell me where you downloaded the save game files from?.... the corruption might be caused by a virus in your computer you should run a antivirus program to check if you have a virus that is causing the files to be corrupt.

get up your lazy *** and manually finish the game your self like i did.
