Well hello there guys. I'm having a bit of a problem. I've tried installing bootleg via the first page tutorial multiple times and solved several issues on my own, however I don't know where to go next. I get the install working and the bootloader is up and running with settings similar to the original post, however the game will not progress past the opening EIDOS logo. Here is my app log. I'm using windows vista 32 bit and bootleg/BFE are running as administrator for sure. I see that the problem is that it couldn't change to the save folder in my directory, but I just checked and it is definitely there. I even put a copy of my save in there and I'm still getting the unhandled exception. Any ideas?

I'm almost at my wit's end here. I have tried using the converter to turn my 2012 copy into the 1998 version via both of Kranmer's (.2 and .3) converters to no avail. In the OP of this topic it says that bootleg 040 converts the game automatically, but according to some it doesn't. Has the first post been updated in a while? I've done everything there step by step numerous times to no avail. I'm no newcomer to modding games and have not had this much trouble before. So I guess let me ask it plainly: Do I need to convert the game on my own using Kranmer's (http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=13429.0) or Kompass's (http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=14047.msg196959#msg196959) or does bootleg 040 do it for me? I'm going to go ahead and run bootleg on my supposedly converted copy of the game and see if that works, but I've had to sift through too much information that isn't in the OP to get where I'm at already :/ which suggests to me that it might need to be updated.
