Aaaahhhhh! COD2 crashed, lost saved games!

I've finally got round to playing call of duty 2 lately and was near the end of the game on the last American campaign having just completed the Hill 400 level when my computer crashed mid load and when I come back in to windows COD2 doesnt recognise my saved games being there!

Ive tried re-installing the game, changing the name my profile folder, deleting a few of the saved games but nothing works. The files are all still there but the game wont recognise them.

Anyone heard of this problem before or know anyway to cure it? I dont want to have to play through the whole game again just to finish the last few levels

ive had this with united offensive, nothing you can do im sure, you could try uninstalling the game but make sure you backup the save game files first

Ive already tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game and I have the saved games backed up now. But I guess the saved games are corrupted somehow because the game wont regonise their existance.

I dont think I could be bothered playing through the WHOLE game again just for the last few levels.

Anyone know how many levels there are left after you capture and successfully defend Hill 400?

One more level.

Germany 1945 - Crossing the Rhine
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
Difficulty: ***
Main Objectives: + Take out the Artillery crews
+ Hunt down the 2 Tiger tanks

Trust its a sick level! Everything boils down to this level!

Taking the motherland!

Found the solution thanks to google. I hacked the cod2 config file to unlock all the levels and simply went and played that last level that I was up to.

Have to say that last level was very dissapointing. It only took me 15-20min to finish and it wasent very difficult and not exactly the most thrilling ending to the game. Bit of anti-climax that

It should have finished on Hill 400. The Rhine crossing was pants, did that level in no time at all.
Waiting for some one to do a decent multiplayer conversion of Hill 400. A fair few of the other single player maps have been made MP.
