harry potter and the order of the phoenix

hi, can anyone tell me please what do i do next in this game , i seem to have done tasks and gone back to the common room and the little white hand has gone, there is no ron or hermione, have walked around but am really stuck about what i do next, if some one could help that would be great, feeling very frustrated ! many thanks. lisab

what exactly have you already done? You go to the common room a lot.

Check the Marauder's map, you can see what you should be doing there.

hi, sorry what is the marauders map ? i am only 37 % and task 28 complete and everyone has gone and there is no white hand telling me where to go ? bit stuck....many thanks. lisab

It's your map. Do you have an active quest or not? If so you may just have to go look for people/things. Or you may have an arrow pointing you to where you need to go... Or it may be a glitch with the rom if you can't leave the room at all.
