You said the CD version works for you in Windows, but doesn't have sound.
Try using this to run the game:

running with vdm tries to open game in dos, which i cant, or do it manually and manually isnt working. it says to type dosdrv at the command promt and i imagine that would make it work when i opened the thru windows, but dosdrv is coming up as illegal command in dos.
i have a feeling the download just doesnt have sound files because i have gotten my CD version to work, with sound (YAY YAY YAY if i was in a candy store b4 im at disney land now!) and it does not have the speech text, where the downloaded one does, and when i did the setup for the downloaded one the sound test worked. so me thinks it only contains the test sound file. please tell me if im wrong.

sorryits wasnt the cd version that worked before it was the download, and i thought that having the actual cd in there was fixing the cd-rom problem, but im pretty sure now, that running it thru windows not dos was the solution. now i am running the cd version with sound. if anyone has had trouble installing their cd version please contact me. i will try to help its just too hard to type it all here.

Default DosBox help!

I've read through most of the posts, but it seems I'm rather computer illiterate. I'm using XP and the message "Insufficient EMS or XMS memory available. 2.5 megabytes of EMS or XMS are required to run." I read using dosbox can solve the problem, so I downloaded that, but I'm VERY unfamiliar with dos and don't know how to use it in order to make kyrandia 3 play-able.
