Yeah, I was stuck in that room with the statues and the doppelganger carpet for a few minutes on my first trip, too. The problem is that the "Operate This Device" icon looks so much like the "You Can't Walk Here" icon that I didn't notice any difference at all, and thought I was really stuck. Tips: Move your mouse SLOWLY, and move it EVERYWHERE. You're going to be doing this all through the lower floors of Durlag's. There are other devices to be used, as well; it took me forever to find the damn forge. I'd walked through the room about 6 times, then finally discovered that thing in the middle was a device that could be used.
I've also found that many of the ToSC areas are MUCH easier if you crank up the Brightness on your monitor.
