Anyway, I've been playing with the game tonight, and I'm already at the 3rd island. Thank you very much for all your help it's been invaluable to me, I used to play this game when I was little, and it feels like...feels good.

Have a nice day, all of u.

How to make sound running? (I run the sound file, but it seems like impossible to configure it)
Highest Sound Blaster version on the list (remembering that "Pro" versions are above the regular Sound Blaster and "16" is above "Pro"). IRQ 7. Adress 220h. DMA 1. HDMA 5.

and fullscreen. If the latter is possible.
Alt+Enter. To start DOSBox in fullscreen, open the DOSBox configuration file and change fullscreen=false to fullscreen=true .

Ah. Yes, it's impossible to install it, as it is already installed.

Start sound.bat for sound setup and fg.bat for the game.
Not only Russian, but helps me to run my favorite game ever....you1re perfect man, thank you a lot.

BTW: Two more questions:
How to make sound running? (I run the sound file, but it seems like impossible to configure it) and fullscreen. If the latter is possible.
Thanks a lot, if there's an answer somewhere else, just tell me where, and I'll read it, but I'm kinda lost in all theese data.

P.S. Russian nick, eh?
The path is:

C:\Dos\cdrive\fg\install.exe

This is where my install files are.

That stuff with the txt which I had to do looks like this:

[autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.
# You can put your MOUNT lines here.
mount C C:\DOS\CDrive
mount E E:\ -t cdrom
C:
CLS

(ctrl+c, ctrl+v-d it, so it's just like you see it now)

Pretty much like this.
I do the following:
run Dosbox 0.74
fg
dir (displays files)
install
Unable to open help.txt

My install files are from this site, so you could check it out (I won't copy the contents of that help.txt here), but that help.txt has nothing to do with the program itself, it's not even a programming file, it's just a text, which contains human stuff. I tried to delete it, than try to run install, but this time, he can't open the file, which is not even there.

Like is said, I have Win7, maybe that messes things up, although I dunno.
What else do you need? (shall I make som printscreens?)

Thanks a lot for helping!

Ps.: Yep, I love russian, I'm even learning it for a few months now.
