Thanks everyone for all the help. As I said you guys are great and have a lot of patience and I really appreciate it.

After I finish this post, I'm going to uninstall and reinstall the game and start a new game. At least this time maybe my character won't get killed right away, now that I've got the combat thing down a little bit.

Also figured what I was doing with the save game. I was saving over the autosave and putting my own subject in each time, and then erasing the old save. I won't repeat that mistake again. Save, save, save. Have a Post-it on the monitor now. Like that idea of saving at the start of each chapter, think I'll take it a bit further and save as I enter each new area.
