find gta sa savegames windows vista beta 2

Hey, See subj. I don't seem able to find the location where GTA San Andreas is putting it's savegames in Windows Vista Beta 2. Some of the Documents folders is protected so i cannot access them eventhough i'm Administrator.
Regards, Rasmus Bertelsen

It's in the same folder as in win xp...i.e. Documents. Click start then documents in the upper right part.

Well, the problem is i cannot access some of the Documents folders, cause

they are protected. And i cannot seem to unprotect them.

I don't get any error-messages; and now i noticed that all Document folder's

Windows Vista Beta 2 doesn't have any savegames for GTA San Andreas, eventhough i could save a game in and reload it. Maybe it's due to the fact that i installed Windows Vista Beta 2 on my l:-drive on my computer. It's on the same drive that Windows XP is installed (C:\-drive), and i'm simply running GTA San Andreas from that drive in Windows Vista Beta 2 without problems. Could it be that the savegames is on the c:\-drive? The games that i save in Windows XP is not touched..Hope this is understandable!

Try looking in your documents folder if its not there try search the harddrive for a
GTASAst1.b file (should be the name on the first savefile so be sure you have saved in slot 1)

The documents folder in Vista, is that the User folder? Because i cannot find any Documents folder in Vista, and i have tried searching in that folder (User and sub-folders).

Unfortunately that directory isn't there, probably due to the fact that didn't install GTA SA in Windows Vista, but in Windows XP, evenso i could play the game and save the game and reload it. Still i cannot find the directory where the savegame files is kept!
