Did your character come from a multiplayer BG1 game? I have found
that if I export the character from a multiplayer BG1 game, or use the
"auto" exported character files that BG1 creates from a multiplayer game,
the ability files do not cross over properly.

I was able to solve the problem by creating a new BG1 single player game
importing my BG1 character from the multiplayer game into the new Single
game. Then exporting that character under a new file name to BG2. This
new character file from the single game always had the proper ability scores
when openned in BG2.

If this sounds like to much of a pain, just download shadowkeeper and rebuild
your character in BG2 (SK is VERY easy to install and use)

SK can be downloaded at http://www.mud-master.com/shadowkeeper/

Good Luck!
