Look, when you run the patch, it says to edit the av.cfg, which is found where you unzipped the game. The patch also tell you to give "the WHOLE path", nothing more and nothing less. THING IS: When you run dos-box, the "root directory" is NOT actually C:\, but rather [drive of your choise]:\[whatever path you choose for your dos-box games folder] DISGUISED as C:\. Dos-box will then treat that path/folder as the "real" root directory.

What I did: I unzipped into C:\Dosbox\CDrive\AVirus, having C:\Dosbox\CDrive as the "root dir", edited av.cfg to "SourcePath = ..\AVirus" and ran the patch. Works like a charm.

Now, for your screaming and shouting: Don't. It will only p*** people off, and that's the last thing you want if you want help. OK?

Look in the UN-unzipped archive again, and have a look.

If you don't have the av.cfg (1kb) in your zip file, then there's a huge chance your download is corrupt. Try dl again, unzip and sort the files by file type. Look for the CFG files in the folder. It should be there.
