Hollywood by Theatrix on aDOSbox?

Hi there,

I downloaded the Hollywood by Theatrix .iso in the iso cellar in the hopes of somehow getting it to run on my Android 3.1 Toshiba Thrive Tablet. I downloaded the aDOSbox beta app (DOSbox for Android port). I found some DOSbox instructions online and managed to mount the .iso file successfully. However, I am not able so far to get it to run the game .exe. I'm wondering if it is my near-total ignorance of DOS that is the problem, or if it is 1) that the game won't run in DOS or 2) that the game won't run in Android, even with aDOSbox.

It would be so cool if it was possible to make this work, as my family has this game for MAC (though it is my understanding it was released for both MAC and Windows) from back in the day.

Any ideas or advice would be appreciated -- or, confirmation that this is just not possible (and why if possible).

Thanks!
