Gory details please..what is that, 9 or 10?

Most everything in the game was child's play for my solo K/M before he left for the Asylum, and because I played him as a Kensai who used his magic for protection (and not offense)he rarely casts any offensive spells other than Melf's Minute Meteors ...

Don't you mean "let slip" as in "let's release" the dogs of war. It's Shakespeare, not Chang, although it does sound better in the original Klingon.

If you take Lavok outside to see the sun of his home world one last time, he gives you the sphere. If you already have a fighter or thief stronghold, however, you can't get the sphere.

I did have a game going, however, where my dual class fighter/thief got both of his strongholds -- the Mae'var ...

After Jaheira finally invites you to share her sleeping bag, she wakes up with a smile on a face, all chipper like, and says, "Good Morning All!" That's where is stays until TOB... haven't had any TOB dialogs with her yet.

Or you could live with the consequences of your actions. Killing everyone you meet is not always the best solution to a quest, but cheating in the item you need when you blow the quest invalidates the whole game, IMHO.

Curiously enough, I had heard that no romance dialogs would appear in chapters 4 and 5, and two previous run throughs of the game proved this to be true. I started another game to have a romance with Viconia, and got the "break-up" dialog just as I was about to go into Spellhold! I have TOB ...

Couple of quick points...

You don't get Skelton Warriors at level 12 or 13, you have to be level 15.

The Helm of Brilliance is only available from Ribald after you finish the Underdark.

The simularcum trick does work well if you have the extra cash at level 12 to buy the helm and the shield of ...

Couple or suggestions, or three...

Do a virus check, you may have been infected.

Reinstall the game with the Bioware patch. You're saved games aren't nuked when you uninstall.

Way to go, turkey. If I didn't know before that Demogorgon was in Watcher's Keep I know know because of your topic heading. Why bother to warn for spoilers if you're going to spoil in the topic title. Some of us are still playing through BG2 and/or Watcher's Keep.
