Dear all,

What should I do when I see this error:

ERROR-CD MUST BE IN THE DRIVE

I had everything instruction followed.

CONSTRUCTOR is the game

Thanks for any advise.

Have you tried running the game with a random CD in the CD-drive?

I'd tried but to not respond. The dos just went off....

Odd. Are you running it in DOSBox? That worked for me the last time I tried it.

any other ways to do it?

According to the review there aren't. But are you sure DOSBox is set up correctly?

yes.... it is set up correctly. I had read about this problem sometimes back in the internet by one of the user but... it seems that there isn't reply. (can't recall which site i'd been)

Copy the cd to disk, then either image it or mount the folder as the cd drive for it. Then make sure the config file (if it has one) says that that is the cd drive its looking for.

Just a thought.

Is the CD-ROM drive configured properly? CD-ROM drives must be MOUNT-ed separately, and with special additional parameters to work properly. The game might not "see" a CD-ROM drive present.

ok here's a part from the DOSbox helpfile on how to mount it:

Q: My CD-ROM doesn't work.
A: To mount your cdrom in DOSBox you have to specify some additional options
when mounting the cdrom.
To enable the most basic cdrom support:
- mount d f:\ -t cdrom
To enable low-level SDL-support:
- mount d f:\ -t cdrom -usecd 0
To enable low-level ioctl-support(win2k/xp/linux):
- mount d f:\ -t cdrom -usecd 0 -ioctl
To enable low-level aspi-support (win98 with aspi-layer installed):
- mount d f:\ -t cdrom -usecd 0 -apsi

In the commands: - d driveletter you in DOSBox
- f:\ location of cdrom on your PC.
- 0 The number of the cdrom drive, reported by mount -cd
