First of all: delete ALL your old game folders, something is completely wrong anyway.
Keep your c:\users\your name\oldgames\

Reunzip the original downloaded archive, in that archive there is one folder named COK, you must end with:
c:\users\your name\oldgames\cok\

Be sure to use a good unzipper, that can handle the directory structure in the archive, not the Vista one, that's too basic.
7zip does a nice job:

Something as:



Run dosbox, mount c:\users\your name\oldgames\ as C: in dosbox, do a
cd cok
start

That's it, all works flawless, game save and all, no need to edit the cfg file or whatever.

The game, after creating/adding/saving and a restart:


'Covenant' player loaded:


Folder structure with saved games:


No problems whatsoever, so : start over from scratch friend.

Can someone help me here? I have read all the posts regarding how to resolve the "unexpected error during save 3hal" error and tried all that had been mentioned. I'm running it in DosBox 0.74 with the help of DOSShell v1.9 and I have Windows 7. The game files reside in C:\cok and I modified KRYNN.cfg to C:\cok\SAVE. The problem I think is that I can't get rid of the read-only attributes for this cok folder as well as the SAVE folder. I de-select it and click apply and ok and when I return to these properties, the read-only attribute is applied again. I tried doing what was stated on http://support.microsoft.com/kb/326549 by typing attrib -r +s c:\cok and
attrib -r +s c:\cok\SAVE as well as attrib -r c:\cok but neither seems to have helped me here as the read-only attribute is still selected and the game still gives same error message. So if anyone passed this point and made the game function (running it similar to my environment), can you tell me how you did it? Thanks.
