Can't Save Well Pokemon Ruby

[Gigashock]

it's a complicated thing but here it is

I play pokemon ruby, save the game and turn off the emulator. when i open the rom on the emulator(VBA), the save is there but when i save again, close the emulator and then re open the emulator the save is not last but the first save i made. Could you help me pleez.

[donkeyknob]

are you saving state slots or using the in-game save?

[Gigashock]

I'm using in-game save

Check to see if the save file is read only.

[Gigashock]

no the save file is not selected as read only

[Gigashock]

well this is a funny thing
suddenly the emulator started saving well without me changing anything.
unexplainable and funny but though your help wasn't aparently useful (im just saying this because you "helped" me a lot) i'd like to thank you all

Uh, the rom isn't by any chance on a CD-R, is it?

If not, I dunno what the problem might be. Make sure all the save directories are set right.

[Gigashock]

no it's not on a cd-r it's on the hard disk and the directories are set fine but no prob it's working well now. thanks for everything

Why don't you use the .SGM save type?
You can also download the latet version of VBA.

Downloading the latest version of VBA (1.7.2) may do the trick.
