If you are trying to identify by scroll, you must make sure the scroll is not in a spell case. Keep your identify scrolls in a regular inventory slot. Then give the item to be identified to that same person. Now you can left click on the item and the option for scroll should no longer be dark. And if you happen to have an identify spell memorized then the option for spell should also be available... I don't think wearing armour matters in the first instance, but it does if you are casting. You can read any scroll while wearing armour. With that in mind, back to your problem of not being able to cast spells. If your not wearing armour, and you've correctly memorized your spells, and it still dosen't work, then I'd say reinstall it. I haven't heard of any related patches.

I don't have any scrolls to identify, but Imoen has identify memorised, and it's her I've been trying to identify stuff with. And yeah, I give her the item and click on it in her inventory and it won't highlight or allow me to click on it at all. I'm downloading a patch now, and I'll re install it and see if that helps. Thanks so much for the help =)

Glad you got it working. For future reference, most RPGs (especially those made by Black Isle/Interplay) are fairly bug-prone without applying at least one patch. So when in doubt, patch it first.

Not true. She could be dead and taking up a spot in your party, with her picture a nice gloomy gray, for weeks and you can still resurrect her at your leisure. That goes for every other NPC as well... However if she is destroyed, and her picture completley dissapears, then shes lost. When Jaheira dies on me I always wait a few days 'till I bring her back. That way I don't have to listen to her whine so much, but maybe thats just me....

crymson77, all I did was click to play the game then click on 'update' where all the options are like 'play' and whatever else, and if your online at the time it'll take you to their own website with the different patches for different countries Good to know I can wait to res Jahiera, she's all grey. How do they die for good though? Imoen died for good once...totally dissapeared on me, and I don't know what happened to make that so. As for whining, Imoen tops it for me. Sick already of her going on and on and on....

I believe that if the damage from the killing blow would take the character's HP below -10 then they 'splatter' for want of a better word, and the portrait disappears. Or it could be just if a critical hit is the killing blow - wear a helmet to minimise this.
