Am at the part, after climbing out of well and supposed to enter dragon's cave. Don't see a cave anywhere (out of well). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Let's wait for someone to help you.
Have you checked the wts?

Chris' wt states: After leaving the water - Go left, then you will see a Dragon guarding the Magic Mirror.

Also in the well - did you:
When you get to the end of you’re rope, jump into the water and dive. Go down to the left and up, then leave the water.

Laurette, which version of King's Quest are you playing? The original, the Sierra remake or the fan made VGA remake? The cave location differs depending on which version you are playing.

I'm in the well, but I can't dive to be able to swim to the left to the dragon cave. What is the secret to dive? I keep drowning.

This is what the wt stated:

A Fairy will appear. [If Fairy not here, go up and down until she appears] She will give you a short protective spell, then go [E3X] to the well. Cut the rope with your dagger, then you will get the bucket. Now lower the rope into the well, then climb down. When you get to the end of you’re rope, jump into the water and dive. Go down to the left and up, then leave the water.

Did you meet the fairy?

I'm playing the Sierra remake. At the beginning of the game I was able to go into the other underwater section. After playing for a while, I cut the rope, jumped into the water, but was unable to dive. So, I'll try the other walkthrough which, at least, states where to go! The one I'm using doesn't. Thanks everybody.

Laurette,

You did not answer me - did you meet the fairy?
If so - did she give you a protective spell?

Laurette, you may have already figured this out, but all you have to do is type "dive." Once Graham dives, you should be able to find the cave.

MaG: Sorry, thought you were talking to Ruthie. Yes, and am past the dragon part. Onto the Condor. Thanks.
Venus: I did figure it out. Thanks.

Glad you were able to move on, Laurette.

Yes, I met the fairy and have the protective spell, but I cannot dive after I jump in the water. I can't seem to get him to go down any farther. He just thrashes around and eventually drowns and I have to restore.

ruthie,

Have tried what Venus stated - type in 'dive'.

I'll try it and see what happens It didn't work. I just got a new flat screen monitor and the resolution it calls for seems to cut off the top and bottom of the picture and I can't figure out how to change it. Suggestion????
ruthie

I don't know if changing the monitor resolution to a higher value might help.
See if you can play with it.

Just came out of the cave. I sometimes see a red bird and sometimes a blue bird. Is either one of these the condor? Also, when I type "jump" nothing happens. Tried F3 (as mentioned in the walkthrough - nothing happens).Thanks.

Let's wait for someone to help you.

I have the resolution for the monitor set as high as it will go. Is there any way to increase it even more? One or twice (I haven't been able to re-create it) I do dive, but then when I get to the cave, I can't seem to get up on the bank. I'll keep trying though.
ruthie

Ruthie,

Is there a word to get you up to the bank like 'walk' or 'climb'?

What I did, finally, I played that part of the game in a window (to do that, I had to play as administrator)I had to really strain my eyes to do it. Once I got to the cave, I saved and then went back to full screen. To do that, I had to quit and restart in normal mode. It worked anyway. Now, I am finally in the clouds.
ruthie

Enjoy the rest of the game, ruthie.

That's wonderful that you did it. Have fun.

Thank you Rushes and MaG.
ruthie

Now, I have still another problem. This time with trying to catch the condor. Is there a secret? When I use the hand to try to catch it, sometimes Graham jumps, but he never catches the bird. I tried f3, but that didn't work. Is there any other secret?
ruthie

The secret to this is to stand on the rock a bit to the right.
Wait for it to swoop down and then jump.
It takes several tries but works.

You said "stand ON the rock" I've tried to stand on it, but I can't get on it. I'll try a little to the right as you suggested and see if I can do better.
