I got Resident Evil 2 for PC, I run it on Windows XP.
At the beginning, it was slow and poor graphics, and the game didn't load, the "can't load file"-like thing.
So I changed the compatibilty to Win 98 and changed the save directory to C:\residentevil2
Now the game runs smoothly and fast, but the save/load screen always crash.
Tried all the solutions posts in all foruns I found, no one helped. The game runs great, but the save/load screen is always crashing, no matter what modification I made based on answers on the web's foruns.
Do anyone had the same problem?
 
Again, my save/load problem is not that about changing the directories, I done that.
The problem is... IT'S ALWAY CRASHING, "LeonU.exe found an error and will be closed".
 
Some people said that RE2 has a bug on savegame while in Win XP/Vista/7. True?

I was having the same issue, I'm running it on Windows 7 64 bit, compatibility Windows 95 mode. It was crashing even after I created a save path like yours. I ended up having to make the save path the same folder that the game is installed on. C:\Program Files (x86)\Capcom\Resident Evil 2. I don't remember where online I found that, but it works for me.
