This has already been answered in the moonstone topic. You didn't really specify what OS you use, and if you use DOSbox or VDMSound, but I'm gonna assume you didn't try DOSbox, since it should work just fine using that (it's the only way I managed to run the game). I hope this helps.

Yeah, you have to use DosBox. I got the same message when I didn't run it that way as well. DosBox is downloadable from the site, and it's easy to learn. Happy killing !

You need to mount the directory the game is in. To do this, let's say that Moonstone is located in "C:\Private\Games\Moonstone". When DosBox opens, you type "mount C C:\private\games\moonstone" and hit enter. It should say the directory is mounted. You then type "C:", followed by "Moonstone".

Does that work?

Wrong wrong wrong. You have to mount the directory with the game, not the entire disk. Try that.
