Still the system-wide Program Files (x86), and not just a directory bizarrely renamed to match, I take it? There's your problem. All versions of MicroProse MTG need permission to write to their installation directory, and not just to the per-user virtualized copy. If you put it in a tree like Program Files (x86) that Windows insists on holding your hand in, it'll die, probably at the start-of-turn autosave.FastEddie wrote:On my second local harddrive, i.e. not the one used during boot, in the folder "D:\Program Files (x86)".
Install it elsewhere (best solution), continue to run it as administrator (worst), or change the directory permissions as instructed e.g. here (I've never tried this, but if I did, I'd definitely do it to just the MTG subdir and not all of Program Files).
