question on saving games

[ichimeno]

heheh this is kinda of a newbish question but how do u save a game. cuz the save state thing when i close the game i cant load it from where i previously played.
is there a way that u can load a game u played previously?

the number keys at the top select a save state slot
and F5 saves, while F7 loads
