I am extremely frustrated.

Playing on Windows 7 64 bit

I can start the game fine and play, but when I try to load a save game it shows me the screen, which then freezes. Then the music continues for a little while longer, and the music stops too. I let it sit for a couple of minutes but it will not resolve.

I have tried this over and over.

Ran it in compatibility mode, as an admin, I can NOT load saves.

I've even restarted the game and made new saves, still not working.

I actually ran into this yesterday, after the game ran fine for a long long time. A simple reinstall fixed it, though.

Same here.

I STILL can not play the game because every savegame - does not care if user generated or autosave - does not load and loading a savegame crashes the game.

So I will try to get a refund for this piece of crap and try to convince all my buddies to not buy this junk.
