ok...heres exactly what happened. im currently playing 343 guilty spark but i didnt feel like playing that level...so i went back to a saved check-piont on Assult on the control room. now ive gone back to check-pionts all the time and it always worked great.but this time...all of my 4 saved check pionts took me back to the very beginning of the level! so i tryed to just go back to my current game by selecting continue on the campaign screen, but it would just take me back (again) to the beginning of Assult. and before this all started i had 2 saved check pionts from 343...now there gone! but on my profile it still says "current level:343 guilty spark"
does anyone know wtf is going on!?

The continue doesn't take you to the last level you got to and your profile will say the last level you got to. I don't know whats wrong with the check points.

When you get to the menu with continue, just choose the New game option or something along those lines. You will be able to choose the levels you have already beaten.

OOOOOOO I just thought of something. Do you have more than one profile? If you do then you might have switched it.

Halo Holic Girl, hi there! Me15ter again!

The game will immediately bump the last saved checkpoint if not used. There is a list of checkpoints, the computer will save them whether you want them to or not. For a level with many checkpoints like Assault, the Assualt checkpoints will bump others off the list.

To keep a certain checkpoint, your best option is to bring it up every once in a while. Click Continue and quit immediately afterwards, if you so desire.

Heyyo,

I suggest manually saving your checkpoints for parts you wanna try over. I don't trust the autosave. So let's say someone wants to play Halo, they go in the campaign, get past a checkpoint.. OOPS! there goes your autosave checkpoint. This's probably what happened to you. If you manually save them, the only way they can get deleted is if someone purposely/accidentally hits the delete save onnit.

I'm rediculous now with saves, I'll manually save if I leave the comp just for a quick bathroom break even. Save games take what? 100KB's at the most? that's nothing. It would take 1,000 saves to start impacting your computer's harddrive space, so don't be afraid to manually save.

Half Life 2's savegames take I think 500KB's each, I have over 40 saves already, so if I wanna leap to a certain part? bam, I'm pretty much guaranteed to find it... eventually. ;)
