Default Merchant Prince troubles

OHNOES!!

Um, i remember playing this game when i was younger.....And I enjoyed it, so i go to download it, I download it, extract it, yada yada...

Then when I go to run it, it says the dos4gw.exe file can't be found, where'd the dos4gw.exe file go? In the zipped folder it is there, but after you extract everytihng it dissapears...

Help!

OHYES!!

So i go to download it, I download it, extract it, yada yada...

Then when I go to run it, it runs without any problem.

That's about as informative as your post.
If you don't give full details, unzipper? Mount lines? Inputs? OS? None can help you.
The game runs fine in dosbox.

Self Extracting Merchant Prince for Dummies.

This is like the only time I've had a problem with extracting something...lol


Now lets run it...

HAHA! Now i know my computers the dummie, not me!

This time when i went to run it in Dosbox (V 0.72) it said something about a dos4gw stack overflow at 84 or something like that.....

ORLY?

For MPrince you must :
run dosbox
-> input ems=false
-> run with prince
No problems then.

[Edit]
Oh yeah, set your cycles low (something as 3000 or so ....]
