4x4 Evo 2 not saving games / settings

Hi all,

4x4 Evo 2 runs great in Vista. (I couldn't even get it to install in x64.)
Graphics are smooth as butter. It's an older game (came out in 2001 I
think), but lists NT4 and Win2k on the CD, so it should be able to deal with
Vista.

However, games and settings won't save. You can change everything, set
everything up and all is fine in the game. But exit and come back in, and
everything is back to original. Same for completed games.

Any ideas?

-Larry

Have you checked the manufacturers website or contacted them regarding
supporting that particular game for Vista Beta 2, or whether they'll support
Vista in the near future? You can report this to Microsoft via here:
