rms - Thanks for the information above. I didn't need a saved game. Steam 
downloaded Part 2 of the game to my computer without me doing anything and 
it automatically put part 2 in "My Documents". I've never had any games 
downloaded to me without initiating it myself so was surprising to me. I am 
playing Part 1 of the game and looked for saved games on my computer but 
couldn't find them as I don't look in My Documents very often. You can tell 
I am not very familiar with downloading games, and first time from Steam. 
Gog is easier for me, but  it is good to have knowledge of how Steam works, 
in case I need to order sometime.

Good point. I have always made hidden files visible.

> Please load the file up under 'Profile 1' "

I don't know what is meant by "load the file up under "Profile 1". What 
file? and where is "Profile 1"?  Is it on Steam somewhere? or on my computer 
? Thanks.
