Save Game Files wont load

[kevbiss1]

Just got an crucial ssd m4 64gb,installed no problems,and reinstalled w7 with no problems.My original hdd was a 500gb samsung f3 which i use for all my storage now,i plugged back in after id finished downloading all windows updates.My problem is even though i havent lost any fliles i cant use my save game files any more,mostly with steam(although some games that use steam cloud are ok )i redirected them but still i cant run the games from where i was.
Dead space i reinstalled,Bioshock 2 (Both not on steam), i even moved all the files across to my ssd but it wont let me play,just reinstall,its as if the files arent recognised,any ideas what ive done wrong or not done?
I decided to start new vegas again and the new saves work fine

Afternoon,

I've pretty much just completed the exact same process as you.

My games (steam etc.) run off a storage drive, when i started dead island BFBC2 for the 1st time it remade the saved games/profile folders onto my new SSD. When i realised I had lost my saved games I just copied the old folders from the old HDD to the new SSD writing over the top of the new ones and the saved games/profiles were back in action.

The same process was also applied to starcraft 2 and crysis 2. Both campaign saved files worked.

Sounds like I done the same as you?
