1. Are you sure you're opening the right archive?
2. What exact files does the archive contain?
3. Did you download it from Abandonia or elsewhere?

If getting a DOS emulator program would alleviate this problem, please show me where I can get one.[/b]

There is a DOS emulator (or, more correctly, a 486/DOS emulator) called
DosBox.
You can download it
here. It will definitely remedy your problems with Master of Magic.
I recommend you check
the official DosBox FAQ, and particularly
this part of it. It is quite helpful for users unfamiliar with DosBox.

I need a little refresher on DOS language, its been years since I've used it.[/b]

A list of basic commands can be found in the DosBox' readme file. Make sure to read it, because you'll also need several that never were part of the real DOS command set.
You can automate certain things by editing the [autoexec] portion of
Dosbox.conf (it works just like Autoexec.bat in true DOS), and it is possible to install Norton Commander on it (you can get it from
our programs and utilities page - scroll down to the bottom to find it) for more convenient usage.
