(Right-click the game exe, choose Properties, choose Run As Administrator). If you have XP Home and don't get the Run As Administrator option, try the instructions on this page http://support.microsoft.com/kb/305780 If you have an antivirus doing real time virus protection, try turning it off while you play. If none of these suggestions help, you may have to try uninstalling the game and reinstalling into your My Documents folder instead of Program Files.

According to TAC's website, it's for crashing issues in XP. http://www.filefront.com/5069510/keepsake-patch-16.zip http://www.adventurecompanygames.com/tac/support/media/keepsake-patch-1.6.exe Here's what the readme for the Filefront patch says: Quote: readme compiled by The Patches Scrolls; www.patches-scrolls.de - Patch is now unified for all languages - Uninstalling will no longer erase saved games - Several Zak overlap problems fixed - Walkthrough cheat with observatory fixed - Added the mountain bottle world map when inside the mountain bottle - World map crashing problems fixed - ESC Key will now display the save & quit menu - Added Advanced Options to disable EAX or sounds (for users experiencing crashes or a variety of issues) - Crashes related to various text problems are now fixed - Crashes at the laboratory are now fixed (French version) - Install folder should now be located correctly (French version)

(I think it was 8 -- it might have been 7) If Windows (or an antivirus) is blocking that annoying "feature" of the save system, that could cause a problem with making new saves. Installing to a location other than C:\Program Files and/or running the game as administrator (right click and choose to run as an administrator) might help with that type of problem.
