Greetings all,

Game:
Eschelon Book 1 (Full Version) w/ Patch 1.04

Issue:
About half the time I attmpt to RESTORE a game from the QUICK SAVE (SLOT1) I get dropped to my desktop;

Memory: 960MB RAM

DirectX Version: DirectX 9.0c (4.09.0000.0904)

Notes:
I recently had to reinstall my OS because my HDD crashed. I reinstalled Eschelon Book I at that time. Since that reinstall I have experienced two issues that I never had before.
(1) Save game slots missing - known issue - fixed by manualy recreating the appropriate "slot" folders.
(2)Current issue - game drops me to desktop when I attempt to RESTORE from QUICK SAVE (SLOT1).

Any thoughts or input will be greatly appreciated.

It sounds like a file(s) got corrupted in that slot... I've had this happen once before when re-rolling chests on a frequent basis. Have you tried deleting all of the files in the slot 1 folder, then re-quicksaving and attempting to restore? You'll lose that save, which sucks, but this method fixed the problem for me.
