If the eeprom files are there (in the 'save' directory), check their permissions (right-click, security tab).

I don't know why the permissions would be a problem, but it is worth a check.

I hope they're not corrupt. You could try them in another emulator.
Or, it may be it's in use by other applications. Try loggin out and in and closing any other users then retry.

It works in the administrator account

If you dont have admin privliges, it may not let you write files to the disk (i.e. save states, RAM saves)

Only admins can...there supposedly be some programs restricting access. Because there is no windows built-in feature for this.

Maybe the program is installed under the user directory -

"[x:]\Documents and Settings \Administrator"

or whatever its called on XP (I'm a 2K'er m'self).

Then the files created by PJ64 by the Administrator user would be restricted to some degree, I think.

If you've installed it there, just uninstall it and put it somewhere reasonable like under

"[x:]\Program Files\"

The documents and settings folder is restricted access to any folder there under a non-admin account.
That might be it...

nope the default folder (C:\program files\project64 1.5)
