Default Computer help required

Hope someone can help me, because EA Sports can't.

About 4 weeks ago I purchased Tiger Woods PGA 2006. For those that don't know this game requires that you establish a profile within the game and work your way up the money list by winning events etc.

Now after playing this game for hours and hours and finally starting to get somewhere all of a sudden I lost my profile which means I would have to start again.

However in the directory for this game there is a sub folder with my profile and all my data however the game is not picking it up.

Anyone got any suggestions as to how I can get the game to read the sub folder sitting in the game directory.

Cheers

Brad

I've got an older version, not knowing how these profiles are actually used in the game it will involve some testing.

I would try this:
1) Copy that existing profile (Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 2005\Career\Players\<YOUR_PLAYER_NAME_HERE>)somewh ere safe (C Drive)
2) create a new player in the game
3) COPY the contents of the existing player (the C Drive version created in step 1) into the folder of the new name you created.

Hope it works...
