    Greetings,

    I read the must read files for this forum and while it did cover the loss of save files , it doesn't really fit whats happened.

    I have No$gba Emulator 2.6a , up until about 3 hours ago it ran perfect then it started jumping ,bad picture , even worse sound , etc etc
    now i tried to load one of my Pokemon games and it loads perfect but my saved game has disappeared?

    Any suggestions as to what i may do to fix this ? or where my save files may have went?

    thank you for your time,
    Darcas

    Search your No$gba directory.See whether there's a BATTERY folder or not...

    It should contain all of your nds game save file.
    e.g pokemon_platinum.SAV

    are you sure you didn't make any modification in your nds file?

    You may just have to start again. Make sure to keep backups of save files.

    It sound like you already know that will happen..-_-"
    and how It can be missing if no one messed it up

    Try search for that file first.
    maybe it was moved somewhere.
    Start ---> Search ----> .sav

    Make sure they're named the same as the ROM.

    If you're not sure...
    MAKE A BACKUP SOMEWHERE ELSE FIRST!!!
    for god sake..

    Your explanation is confusing...
    maybe you could post some pic?

    For example for what anandjones say..
    Your rom name :- Pokemon_Platinum(U).nds
    Your sav file name :- Pokemon_Platinum(U).sav
