have you mount the folder with BaK?
Try to type it right after DOSBox starts:
mount C C:\DOS\FILES

After this type DIR

If there is now on screen 3 Dir .... bla bla bla
type CD BAK

and finally type KRONDOR

I extracted the files by selecting "extract all files." I don't know what program is being used to extract files (I'm running Windows XP).

Windows XP has a built-in unpacker. However, that unpacker is:
1. weak in terms of options
2. compatibile with only one type of ZIP comression

What I suggest you do is get WinRAR, install it and use for unpacking from now on.

Is there a way to place screen shots on this forum? Maybe that would help explain the problem.

I started DOSBox and typed "mount C C:\DOS\FILES"

The screen reads "Drive c already mounted with local directory c:\DOS\CDRIVE\"

Next I typed "dir"

The screen reads: "Directory of c:\.
. 31-05-2007 16:27
.. 31-05-2007 15:57
o file(s) 0 bytes.

2 dir(s) 110,540,800 Bytes free.
c:\>

The screen reads "Drive c already mounted with local directory c:\DOS\CDRIVE\"[/b]

Because by blindly following the tutorial, you have configured DosBox to automatically mount that on startup. Open Dosbox.conf, find where it says
mount C C:\DOS\CDRIVE
and change that line to say
mount C C:\DOS\FILES
Then start DosBox.

I typed "mount C C:\DOS\FILES" and now I have two files when I type dir after the prompt, Thanks!!

What do I do next?

What does DIR return?

Files or folders? What are their names? If there is one folder (you'll see by the extension "dir") named BaK, type "cd bak", then type dir.exe, dir.bat or dir.com. Look for any file named "setup", "install" or "Krondor" or something like that. The Setup is usually for setting up sound, for some games that is done in "install". When you have found these exe, bat and/or com files just type the name of that file you want to run.

Ok, that BETRAY~1 dir is the one. The reason for the ~1 is that the name is more than 8 characters long. Rename that directory (=folder) in XP to something shorter, then use the command cd [name of directory].

when I type cd bak it comes up "unable to change to: bak."
