Answer
Hi Tim,

I'm not familiar with Monkey Island, but were you able to save game data to the same disk and drive before? If you can save other data (files, etc.) with the same disk drive via Workbench, then it's obviously not a faulty drive, and it may an error with the Monkey Island diskette itself. Something you could try is checking the Monkey Island diskette for errors with a utility such as DiskSalv:
