    This was continuing from my previous problem. Like I said, I converted the sav file to VBA, and I don't know how to change it back.

    ok ive looked into this issue. and if the sav file is ".sgm" then thats a save state and you cant convert it, but if you save in game then the .sav file should be where your roms are and you wont have to convert it.

    I can't save my game. When I open the ROM it gives me the FATAL error.

    Warning! This may not work I might have got lucky but this is what I did not my game works great!Alright, so I did something I thought would kill my diamond. It had the same problem, and I was getting fed up. Materials : Clorox disinfecting whines, a mechanical pencil, and some hands. first, I peeled off the sticker, them I flipped the game over and went through the slits with the gold to clean them out. Then, (Last) I wrapped tight in a Clorox wipe and clamped it tight in my hand. *Do this over a sink or something* Ok, if you are this part I think you should know I am 12 and have no Idea if I just got lucky, put it just worked after it so It is a good chance. Ok, last step for me was squeeze it tight, them dry it off. Then I simply put it in the machine and so far I haven't had a problem with saving!

    *Please like or favorite this post if it worked for you!
