But!

You have to create a new profile and then move the old saves from the old profile (in the Frictional Games folder) to the new profile folder in the new Frictional Games folder.

thanx for the head up, the game mostly seems to be working now, i can load any of the autosaves that were in the save file folder, its just when i select to continue my previously played game from the main menu that upon loading the game seems to crash, i dont have that problem when selecting one of the autosaves from "load game" on the main menu, also everytime i pause the game it asks me to select the profile im using.. nothing game breaking but i thought i'd let you know

thanks for the help

Can you zip up the "old" frictional games" folder and send it to me? I'd be very interested to see WHAT in there is causing the issue.

alright, Done & done, you do mean the "Old" frictional games folder, as in the one i had to re-name before fixing the issue? thats the one im trying to send but "The file you attached is too large. The maximum size for that type of file is 2048 kilobytes."
How can i send the ZIP to you??
My email is: gothick.fu.ck.reality@hotmail.com if u care to shoot me an email and then i can just add the ZIP as an attachment there and send it right back.

Also when i loaded up one of the Autosaves lastnight, the game loaded up fine, no crashing, but when it was done i was able to play the game as normal but heres a pic i took of the problem:

the problem seemed to resolve its self after i loaded a couple of different save files, and every now and them either the mouse or the keyboard would be totally unresponsive exept that i could still pause and navigate through the menu / memento's and diaries.. that problem seemed to fix itself also..

OK, now that is interesting.. All of our configuration files are zero bytes. Did you perhaps run out of disk space??

Ahh, ok.. Then that explains what happened. And I'm going to look into adding a "check" to better handle this scenario.

Thanks for the help, and enjoy the game.
