 		</p>
 		<p>
 			To avoid losing your progress if Snes9x or your system crashes before the .srm file is saved, Snes9x provides auto-saving .srm option - the .srm file is always updated when the SRAM contents are modified. See into 'File' tab in 'Preferences' dialog to turn on this option. You can also update .srm file manually by choosing 'Save SRAM File Now' in 'Option' menu.
