Original Message: Help! My MM 6 Save Files Are Corrupted!
My game played fine until a recent Windows update, then the background music started to sound choppy, and the game started to experience random crashes. Now my save files are corrupted, and I can load some of the saved files or start a new game, but the game WILL NOT SAVE! If I try, it attempts to read and then crashes. Uninstalling and then reinstalling the game doesn't work, neither does restoring to a time when it DID work. I even defragmented my disk, hoping it would write over the old data files. When I reinstall the game it doesn't start fresh: I get the same game files I had when this problem started, and no ability to save files. Any advice that doesn't involve paying the GeekSquad a hefty fee to find out they don't know the answer any more than I do?
