Didn't you enter any rooms, there? There should be a more recent autosave.

Maybe I'm confused, here, but I thought some of the closed, dark rooms on the first floor entailed separate loading, and separate screens.

If not, then I'm afraid you're out of luck. What your CPU, RAM, video card, and Windows type?

Good reason to develop the habit of saving regularly: no offense meant. I typically save every 5-10 minutes. And I rotate 3-5 savegame slots.

No, I don't mean quicksave. I mean just what I wrote: "And I rotate 3-5 savegame slots." That way, if a problem occurs in any saved game, I have another one on hand that dates back only 5-10 minutes.
