Helm of the Rock and Circlet

.....I have found the Helm and also both of its broken off horns. Supposedly to restore the Horn fully, I need to equp the Helm and the horns. How do I do this? Wearing the Helm and trying to drop the horns onto it doesn't work. Nor does Cespenar have any clue. I mean, it's a nice Helm just as it is, but I would like to see it improved if possible.
.....Likewise, I have both the Circlet of Netheril and the Bronze Ioun stone. Supposedly they can be combined, but how? Again Cespenar seems not to even see them, and again I can't simply click on them both; I can only wear one or the other.
.....Addendum: in a similar vein, there is supposed to be an item called Bard Gloves in Watcher's Keep, in the same room as Yakman's camp. This does not seem to exist. Since I am playing my Bard this time around, this sounds like it would come in handy, but cannot be found. Can loot vary sporadically? Or perhaps the game AI decided that it would have been to powerful an item for me to wield?

    All of these are Cespenar recipes; you just need the items in your possession and sufficient gold when you talk to him. In the case of the gloves, that's the basic gloves that don't do anything plus a bunch of gems.

    If he's not seeing them, or if the bard gloves weren't there at all, something's broken. Or modded. Randomness in drops is very limited in the BG series - you'll really only see scrolls and junk as random drops. Every good equippable item is a fixed drop.

    "If he's not seeing them, or if the bard gloves aren't there at all, something's broken."
    .....Well, damn. I don't use any mods, so it's the standard EE game, but Cespenar doesn't even mention them, even when I have them in my inventory in plain view. I know he is still functional, because I just upgraded the Flail of Ages with the 4th head, the poison one. I'll try checking game files for corruption, but I am not terribly optimistic.
    .....Addendum: I checked file integrity, and I am told that all files are intact. Looks like I am screwed here. Any suggestions?
