This is about installing Ultima Underworld from CD. I know this is only vaguely relevant to Abandonia, but a 'lil help for an old school gamer?

OK, I bought a CD (legitimate, including box and guides) containing Ultima Underworld and Wing Commander II. It tells me to go to DOS or DosPrompt and install like so
1. C:
2. Uinstall

Not so tough. Except I'm on Windows XP and this is the message I get
Command Prompt - uinstall
C:\Windows\System32\autoexec.NT. The system fil is not suitable for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows applications. Choose 'Close" to terminate the application.

And that's where I'm stuck. I tried just dragging it out from the disk directory in My Computer straight to DosBox without any form of installation but I get the dreaded message about Expanded Memory (which I still have no idea how to deal with)
C:\>UW.EXE
EMS Allocated
Cannot Run Underworld
Resource problem or internal error. Error code AA06

So I ask with all of my heart, HELP! Can someone instruct me on how to beat this thing or send me the file that was once on Abandonia? I will willingly provide proof of ownership (a picture) if the rules are similar to video game emulators.
