Hi

that's very strange, doing snapshot and loading it later is something I 
use a lot to debug emulation issue when working on hatari and I never 
saw what you describe.

I just tried with current git version and everything is fine :
 - press f12, save snapshot
 - go back to emulation, press f12 and load snapshot -> ok, no problem
 - exit hatari ; restart hatari with --memstate -> ok, no problem.

this is with tos 1.04fr and STF mode

can't reproduce ; maybe there's something with your settings.
