Uhm you 2 made me curious im gonne try it :)
Was talking about Manhunt with a buddy last night and reminded myself of the time I had no ammo and no weapon to take out the many hunters. Fighting was out of the question because I'd quickly get surrounded and get the shit beat out of me.

Had the start the whole chapter over.

If you've got the original disc, did you install all the patches and preferrably even complete mod (dunno if it actually fixes some bugs, but ... it does :D ) The game was a compilation of bugs on release.

And the bad thing is it doesnt even give an error message it doesnt start at all
I made a post a few years ago about a stupid mistake I made

http://www.gog.com/en/forum/general/have_you_ever_spent_a_huge_amount_of_time_doing_something_unnecessary_really_stu
I dropped my mouse just as the cinematic for the research ending of Alpha Centauri started. It landed on a button, causing the whole thing to skip. I didn't see the ending until a few years ago on Youtube.

Earlier today I also accidentally turned in a quest in The Old Republic while still working on a bonus objective. It was one of the bonus objectives which worked in multiple stages, and since I hadn't completed the final stage the whole thing was abandoned, lost forever. Just some lost experience, but it made me kick myself as a guildie did the exact same thing yesterday - most likely on the same mission and stage as well.

I've also done stuff like pressing quickload instead of quicksave by accident many times, mixed up my autosaves and losing turns as a result and forgetting to save entirely - Black & White was the offender on that last one. Apparently autosaves can't be reloaded on a game over.

If you got it from GOG, check out the support forums, if no go, put in a ticket.
If running win7, right click and run as admin (yea, I know your accounts an admin but it isn't a admin-admin). Alternatively, go into c:\Program Files(x86)\ and add your logon to the gog.com folder with full rights and make sure it's getting inherited down.

chao8971: I think one of the ones I made that sticks out in my mind is from the first time I played Fallout about 2 years ago. I remember I had costumed my character out and made him all I wanted him to be. I made him pretty darn powerful and decided for more power I should join the Brotherhood of Steel. I had been saving often in that game and once I got to the highly atomic the Glow area I did a save inside, my problem was I did not have a backup save besides that. I found that I could not leave the area without dying from radiation so I had to start all over again. That day thought me some valuable lessons, most importantly to keep at least two saves in a game like that.
If you've read the manual, they do warn you about this.
About saving.

We here at Vault-Tec highly suggest that you use more than one
save game slot at a time. We suggest that you start with slot 1, and
work your way down the list of slots. When you want to save a game
after slot 10, start over again at slot 1.
In appendix 1: hints and tips

Save Often
You have ten save game slots. Use them well. Before you get to
a new location, save your game. Before entering a dangerous looking
building, save your game. Before talking to an important looking
NPC, save your game. And use all of your save game slots. Don’t
keep saving over slot 1. If something goes drastically wrong, it’s better
to be able to move a couple of saved games back and restore from
there instead of having to start over from the very beginning.

Yeah it was one of those just starting out mistakes. Fallout the first CRPG I ever played. When it comes to games like that I usually don't like reading the manual because I find more of a adventure figuring things out myself. Even though I messed up and had to start over it was just a large learning experience for me that I think helped improve the quality of the game. At this point I read the manuals before starting out in my GOG games now, but like I said I was new then I did not think things over to well.

In Link (Zelda II), I couldn't find an item in one palace, so I thought there's nothing there, and proceeded to kill the boss there. As you know, defeating the boss then exiting stage right results in the palace being turned into rubble.

This made the game unwinnable because now I don't have that vital item to get past an obstacle. I had to start over, and eventually I found the secret wall that you can walk through...

Protip, don't destroy a palace until you got its item...
