This is why you make lots of save games... It takes the game a while to save your game, even if you Quicksave, but the trouble will be worth it once you find you actually need one of your saves.

A gamesaving strategy: before you head off to a new map area, manually save your game. (Find the save button and name your save.) That way, you can revert back to it just in case something bad happens. If you need to back the game up just a tiny bit once you're in that area, Auto-Save and Quicksave will take care of that for you. (I tend to use my Quicksave during what my father calls "Clint Eastwood moments," i.e., "It's quiet. Too quiet. Better save the game.")

If you want to get ready for another solo run, why not play with a reduced party first? Try your sorcerer character again, but this time take along a thief (Imoen, Yoshimo, Nalia, or Jan) and a sturdy fighter (Minsc, Keldorn, Anomen, Mazzy in a pinch.) Or, you can cut that down even more and just take Anomen along. His Find Traps priest spell won't disarm them, but you can get to know the general location of the traps and what defensive spells will absorb them...
