Are you sure you are running the right file? If it's a Windows port, there should be a Win and a DOS version.

Right-click on the executable. [PROPERTIES]-->[COMPATIBILITY]. Check Windows 95, 640x480 resolution, 256 colors.

I cant get this program to run with DosBox .74 The game keeps thinking that I need the CD-ROM which is in the drive, I installed from the CD but when it comes to playing the game my CD-ROM keeps reporting that there is no CD in the drive! What the hell?
Why couldnt they just make technology backwards compatible to begin with? |

Have you mounted the CD-Rom using the -t cdrom argument?
