Need help with savestates

Post by l30n4rd0 »

Well, here's my situation:
I can't save anything! Not even SRAM.
Somebody help me with this. Or at least redirect me to a topic where I can find a solution.
My OS is Windows XP Home Edition.
UPDATE:
Solved. It was a typing error. I typed this on the paths:
Saves: D\SNES\ZSNES\SAVESTATES
And the correct one is this:
Saves: SAVESTATES
This topic will be useful to some users in the future. Lock it if you want to, but don't delete it.

make sure the saves directory isn't set to a read-only folder or medium.
<Nach> so why don't the two of you get your own room and leave us alone with this stupidity of yours?

It's not, but I can't save. It's not compressed, it's fully unpackaged.

no, your error was that you forgot the colon after 'D'. fully-qualified paths are preferred.

it's not spam, there's no reason to delete it. that being said, fixing a typo does not a sticky make.
Why yes, my shift key *IS* broken.
