Still doesn't show my BG SoA saved games for some reason. I looked online and it said that I have to go to all programs >> games >> games explorer, then click on my game, click on the arrow next to play and click on 'saved games', unfortunately there is no 'saved games' to click on for BG SoA. If anyone else has vista, can you try this and see if you can see your saved games this way? (BTW I definitely have saved games, that was an unnecessary comment)

I too have run into the exact same issue. Shadowkeeper can find my saves, but I can't access them any other way, other than loading and saving ingame.
Stupid Vista. |

Dang. Maybe if I completely explain my situation someone might know something. I have a RunDll virus on my laptop. The only thing I have saved of any importance is BG SoA saved game which I have been playing for a year now (spread out every now and then, during breaks, etc.) So I am trying to reformat my laptop so I can get rid of the virus. Kyrvias said "Shadowkeeper can find my saves" how do I do that, also does any one know how to remove the virus. That would save me a load of trouble. The error comes when I turn the lap top on, the window says I cant find some file, then I press okay, then everything on the screen disappears, and only the background left, then I have to restart it, etc, till it works.

Are you SURE it's a virus, and not just a corrupt file?
If it is indeed a virus, you may want to,,,,uhhh,,DL or install an AV program?!? YaThink? It sounds as if you can get to the desktop after multiple boot attempts,,,is this so? If you CAN get to the desktop occasionally, then you can do a search (DON'T USE INDEXING!!!!!) on the name of the savegame. It will tell you where it is. I can save you some time, if you will listen. AS I SAID BEFORE.....Vista defaulted my BG1 saves to my Documents folder,,,in one of the 'user' folders. Try looking there.

Instead of telling me to listen, again, try reading a little bit. That's probably the only way you could save me time, since I wouldn't have to type these explanations. I COULDN'T FIND THEM. Maybe you would consider being a little more specific, since it sounds like you already found them before.

C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Black Isle\BGII - SoA\save

May not be the smartest idea, I'm not sure, but I've always created a seperate folder just for my games, I usually put it right under C:\Games etc.
Some save files are under the user folders, but most older stuff I've found right in the games location.

Well, Vista IS pretty bad, but I think calling it a Virus is a little harsh.
