OMG OMG OMG I DID IT> haha THANK YOU ALL! I learned several things from you folks, like when I got to ONE platform I SAVED the game. THEN loaded it and used that starting point to get to next platform. AND YES YOU CAN NOT RUN to all, only one or two the rest I had to stop, just get close to edge, really AIM and jump. I changed my mouse setting it was jumpy and kept making him jump high and into the water. grrr.
SO at last I got to that stinking valve. Now I am on my own I guess, backtracking to the cistern door?I assume I will now be dealing with a water monster? eeek. ANd I think I drowned a guy in a big tank, it was NOT a pleasant sound.
This is the first game like this I have EVER played and its a major challenge. But that platform jumping would probably have been easier with a computer with a better graphics card than my hp internal crappola. Oh well, thanks again all, I am SURE I will be back for more help. At least I didn't have to get my 13 yr old to do it for me. Proud mom here. Smile

oh and some guy in a youtube vid said JUMP and RUN along the platform, ya right, I am gonna smack him. :O

Once you have all 3 valves opened, you can just leave the area and go back out to the entrance with the two bridges. You don't have to platform jump back, you can just

walk through the shallow water, the water is safe.
