Confused I Am

Hi,
I'm having the same problem and I'm still confused as to what to do. I get the error message that it can't run on a 64 bit machine and I need to check for a different version of the game.
I am using the D-fend reloader. I have installed Earl Weaver Baseball in that folder.
Is there anything I can do to get this to run?
Thank you very much for any help!

If you have "64-bit" warning, it means that you are starting game directly, while you must have it run in DOSBox.
I am not very familiar with D-fend, but first guess would be: do you have DosBox itself installed? D-Fend is only frontend for it, AFAIK...

Thanks for the reply.
DosBox is installed in the D-fend folder. I tested it by double clicking on it from within that folder and it did start up.

Umm... Ok, I will get D-fend for myself then. :)
...
1. I got D-fend Reloaded (http://dfendreloaded.sourceforge.net/).
2. It really have DOSBox pre-installed.
3. I started D-Fend by link created by installer. I received list of games (that is empty, except one entry, and it is DOSBox itself).
4. To actually add game, I need to press "add entry" and select game starting file and entry name (at least. There are more parameters of course).
5. After that I am able to start game double-clicking new added entry.
Do you doing the same? :)
