I've registered now. This may be a useful site, given my general stupidity, and the fact I haven't played a C64 since about 1992.

I've worked out the F11/F12 saving and loading, but at the end of the season the game goes into auto-save and asks if I wish to save again?!?! Please help.

:( :x

I managed to save my first seasons progress, and have now completed my second season. But I cannot get the damn thing to save/load (not sure which bit isn't working) the new season.

For the first season I created a new .d64 file and loaded this when asked 'Do You Want To Play An Old Game?'. I have followed the same procedure (I think) but am having no joy.

I have been asked whether I want to save disk to system, what do I do??

Right, I have saved my progress until before the last game of the season. This is saved with Alt+F12 and loaded with Alt+F11. After the final match of the season you are presented with your season stats. and final league position, etc. the final screen gives your management rating, gambling winnings, season-ticket sales, then goes straight into saving mode.

Do I save here? Press Alt+8 create a new .d64 file? Do I then press Escape and return to the saving screen?

I am then asked if I want to save again, Y/N. Can it do any harm/good to save again?

If you choose NO, the game crashes and you have to load again.

The first screen when loaded asks 'DO YOU WISH TO PLAY AN OLD GAME? Y/N'.

I have pressed Y then F9 and scrolled down to my .d64 file. Do I press Enter? Or F1? Or should I press F9 first, then select the .d64 file, Escape and then press Y?

I need to lie down. :? :? :cry:

If anyone can heal my pain, I would very much appreciate it. Please.
