You use DOSBox which can be found here. I reccomend you to read our DOSBox tutorial for guidelines on how to set it up.
Other than that, Ultima Underworld 2 is ESA protected and therefore cannot be downloaded from Abandonia. |

mount C C:\DOS\CDrive
mount D D:\ -t cdrom C: CLS so it looks like this... [autoexec] # Lines in this section will be run at startup. mount C C:\DOS\CDrive mount D D:\ -t cdrom C: CLS |

Do you make a folder named "DOS" on your C partition and one named "Cdrive" inside that, or did you just copy-paste these lines into your config? I have a distinct hunch the latter is the problem here.
