I have Ewj2 i know that it's not ESA protected so if anyone needs it i can sumhow give it to the moderators so they could add it to this site... whatever So i have problems launching it When i extract the game i get these files in the folder : EWJ.A0 1-4 DOS4GW EWJ2 EWJ.ID Setup setup.exe


So here's the deal...I can't launch the game thru the DOS4GW or the EWJ2 becase of the xp windows i think

I try the setup.exe but it sais Setup.exe is not a valid Win32 application

You say it. DosBox should do the job. Could have figured it out yourself, too.

DOS4GW is an auxiliary program though, it's present in many games but it never starts the game, rather it's run by the game.

You might want to check out the official DosBox FAQ (http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php), and particularly this part of it. (http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?page=Basic+Setup+and+Installation+of+Dos Box) It is quite helpful for users unfamiliar with DosBox.

I suggest you also read the pages about command line (http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?page=CommandLine), internal programs (http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?page=Internal+Programs) (very important!) and the config file (http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?page=dosbox.conf).

If that stuff is a bit too much for you, you might consider using one of the multiple frontend programs (http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?page=DOSBoxFrontends) available.

It's all easier then it seems. So remember:
DON'T PANIC!!! ^_^
