This is a new problem for me. I enter the Underdark through the City-of-Caverns. Meet some drow and eliminate them. Go to Carlig, Finderlig, and Uder Mordin. Sell some stuff. Buy some stuff. Talk to all. I get the tale of the mage (Vithal) who was searching for treasure but now buried deep in the earth. I can easily restore him with the Freedom spell.
So what is my problem? It is the elementals. It makes no difference it I check on the elementals before or after I restore Vithal. They keep appearing from the portal. They appear 2 or 3 at a time. I have tried to kill them off. I killed 12 air elementals and then another three pop out of the portal so gave up. If I retrieve Vithal, he sends me for his spell book and rushes off to the earth elemental portal. Two hits from an earth elemental and he is dead.
An ideas what caused the problem? Any ideas on how to fix this problem.

So far I went through Baldur's Gate and about half of SoA. The only other problems were missing globals. The global for Jaheira (JaheiraReturns) and the global for the Seeing Eye (BeholderPlot) were missing.
I am playing this game in WIndows 7 in Bootcamp on an iMAC. One annoying thing is that the game will not close by itself. When I shut down the game, the DOS window stay open and I get a Window 7 box with choices. One choice is "close this program". Also I have the AV program turned off while I play the game. I do not know if this is a problem with the BGT game or with my Windows 7 setup.
Thanks for any help,
Tom
I just did a second search. Found the answer. Apparently there are 10-20 elementals at each portal that must be killed before you retrieve Vithal. I'll try this out and report if that works.
