Bug late in the game: HoMM3
I'm new to the forum (and forums in genereal), so please excuse any breach of etiquette or other obvious manifestations of ignorance.
However, I ran into a bug playing HoMM3 having to do with Monoliths and the game crashing in what I presume is the first scenario of the very last campaign (of the original game, no expansion pack). When a hero (any hero) visits a monolith (so far, any monolith), the game crashes (quits to desktop without warning).
As far as I know I have the latest update (as old as that is). This does not happen with any other scenarios I have found, only this one. Is it fatal? Is there a fix? Have others even had this problem?
Any input would be useful. Thanks!

I believe it is just the original Heroes of Might and Magic III the came out in 1999, not the expansion pack or any of the other editions. Besides that, I have downloaded and installed the available update, which is up to version 1.4. I tried looking for the documentation that would specify which HoMM3 it is, but I can't find it. All it says on the (original) cd is "Heroes of Might and Magic III".

I found it -- it is the Restoration of Erathia. The first scenario of the last campaign is presenting the problem: Seeds of Discontent, The Grail. So far any hero visiting any monolith crashes the game entirely. I would like to fix the problem. However, if it can't be fixed I suppose if anyone just knows where the grail is and can tell me, that would work too.
Thanks.

The grail is, if I remember correctly behind angels, on swamp terrain.

Thanks everyone -- I found the grail last night thru trial and error (after I had figured out it was in the swamp). Still never figured out the bug though -- which is annoying all by itself.
I'll try the restarting the scenario thing... Might work.
