I Go to the in game menu and choose a box to save the game, yet no screen shot appears, which is what it should do. I go back and try to load it through the in game menu, but nothing is there. I have tried to change the save path to different things with no sucess. What am I doing wrong here?

By limiting themselves to (an ever increasing) select number of game engines ScummVM is able to deliver on compatibility and ease of use.

The ScummVM site is mirrored on Sourceforge. If you're at work or school (where game sites are typically blocked) try accessing the ScummVM links via http://scummvm.sourceforge.net/ Hope that helps!
