    I am having a HUGE issue.I just got The Forgotten Sands for PC yesterday from the local GameStop, and I played it for a long time, major awesomeness, till I ran into the weirdest craziest BUG. Look in the video, do you see that dial pop up at 6:36? That dial NEVER appears for me, I tried everything except restarting the whole game over, and I don't want to reinstall due to CD keys and extra codes for skins and stuff. Has anyone else run accross this error? Is there a way to fix this? patch or something? By the way, I am running on an Nvidia 9600GT card, in case might be something odd with the 9 series, or maybe Nvidia. Please let me know as soon as possible

    this happens for me, too after i already gut stuck due to a "missing room" bug right at the beginning.

    I've just decided to hate Ubisoft. I've stayed true to my favorite series (Assassins Creed, Splinter Cell and POP) but this colossaly bugged piece of horsesh*t does it for me.

    Not in the mood to start over from scratch....is there no patch or fix out for this?

    And it's not an nVidia thing - running ATI HD 4870. Win XP.

    Same problem happened to me. So now I have to start over from the beginning? Isn't there some way to load the previous checkpoint and try from that?

    Hello
    I have a problem like that; but for me the dial is <span class="ev_code_YELLOW">floating in the air</span>!!!
    It's not placed on the ground, but is located about 2 meters above the ground in the sky!
    And I can not grab it nor return it!
    Also when I close the game and run it again no change occur!
    Do you mean I should restart the game <span class="ev_code_RED">from scratch</span>? Is there any guarantee it will not occur again?!
    Isn't any other way to load the <span class="ev_code_RED">previous checkpoint</span>?
    Is there any <span class="ev_code_RED">bug fix</span> or <span class="ev_code_RED">patch</span>?

    I encountered the exact same problem! Before this bug, I also encountered the column bug, but that bug can be work-arounded by lowering the resolution. However, for this astrolabe bug, I tried everything but still no luck!

    I wonder how can an experienced game company like UBISoft allow such bugs to pass QC and went through for commercial release? We're PAY customers who support original software, we're the ones supporting the company's business, UBISoft should attend to these bugs ASAP and release a bug fix ASAP.
