Ok, so i'm in chapter 2 and playing multiplayer by myself.. I went to the Twisted Rune and killed everyone, but aerie, viconia and minsc died in the battle. Well, i picked up all i could and used the eye to get back out, but i cant seem to resurrect viconia, i mean i'll cast the spell and she'll still be dead, however i can bring aerie and minsc back to life.. umm. help? I also noticed that she somehow got to -32/58 hp!! Negative!!! but none of the other dead characters seem to have this problem...

What difficulty level are you playing at? IIRC, if you have less than -10 hit points in core AD&D, you can't be resurrected. Try setting the difficulty setting lower and see if that helps.

She has sufferet a chunkydeath this is a non-reviver (like disintigrate)
hope you have a save game near the end of the twisted rune with her alive Image

What Soujourner said. I've also found for some reason that on some occasions the Raise Dead spell will fail, while a Resurrect wand (applied instantly afterwards) won't.

If her portrait is still there she can be resurrected, if not she is gone for good.

In BG1 there was the problem with healing Viconia, because of her high magic resistance the spells just wouldn't work on her.
This could be similar, the wands in the game don't seem to notice any resistances, so use the rod of resurrection instead.
