Game Errors
I am getting a heap of game errors with the full version. Symptomes are:
Cannot load a save game
Cannot keep retired commanders
Following error messages come up:
"Cannot Read Register" (At start up and close of game and when commander killed)
"The File 'Role of honor. dat' appears to be copied from an earlier version so it will need to be deleted" (At start up of game).
Could somebody please provide a solution to these errors.

Indeed, WinXP usually is rather easy on those things. Are you by any chance sharing the computer (with everyone having his or her own account)? I could imagine that triggering an error like that, but as long as you can run it as administrator and that solves the problem I believe you rather shouldn't take to desperate measures to change the situation.
I don't know well how registry works with admin rights. But maybe Critical Mass is trying to create a new key, while writing only in an existing one would be allowed for non admins. Or maybe the key is created/edited in a reserved place.
Well, for my part I know how to get around the problem (right, and I start the game as admin). But as the question was raised a while ago, and that it might give a good reason to Sean to come back to the game...
