How did you do it?
I started a new game after a clean install (CD-ROM 1.029 + 1.34), loaded my 1.33 saves in there and had no problems.

Have you backed up your saves before in a new folder?
Did you check for admin rights before installing?
Were all background programs shut off during install?

no i didnt have them in a separate folder, i think they got corrupt with the reverting of the patch, (i got several error messages when trying to revert)

Hmm, I can't even give you a screenshot as consolation (my elf is male)... - which error messages did you have? And how did you revert?
Kiya

If you wish, I can give you my last save before hitting the gong - with a female mage though.

If you restart the game - what about a nice clean install before running into problems? I'm just thinking of your error messages...
