Celtic, I can send you my saves.
You have to replace all of your saves with mine. The game won't accept saves you renumber and slip in. Once you've found the right one, you should be able to just save over the rest.
If you want to keep yours, just move everything out of your Game folder in Media and store it somewhere in a new folder on the desktop or My Docs. Then plunk everything I send you in the game folder.
Gil.
