Urgent help in Max Payne.....

[khaos2005]

I have a serious problem at hand. I was playing Max Payne, on normal mode. I was on Part II, at about the 4th chapter or so. It's the part with the exploding building, fires, and such. Well, I always let autosave save it, and then turn the game off whenever I am done, but after autosave saved the game. So I finished playing, and went to the home screen. My friends came over, so I wanted to show them how to play and use the controls. I let them go into the tutorial, and goof around. They finished it, and left it at that. I then turned the game off, and they left. Well, I just went back to it to finish my chapter where I left off. However, it is saved in the tutorial. My game appears to be gone. Why would it be so easy to overwrite a game like this, with no prompting, for a tutorial???? This simply can't be. With my luck I know I'm screwed, but I did not want to start over, that's rediculous. I had close to a full day put into that. Is there any way out of this? Someone please help me out, or tell me what's going on. Thank you.

As I had figured, thanks though.

This is a load of crap. What an awful user interface. That's like having an icon on your desktop to format your harddrive, without any confirmation. Grrrrr...
