No, I'm not. Is that the reason? The sound only plays through DOS?

Default this system does not support full screen mode

Hullo and help !
i remember this game from when i was a kid ; my version was some how corrupt, and i could never get past a certain point in the game - i think it was somewhere in the desert... and now ! i've found the game, downloaded it, and i can't open it - with the message 'This system does not support full screen mode'... i've tried all three .exe all all three come up with this message. i've d/l'ed dosbox, but it doesn't help... any ideas ?
thanks

You need to install DOSBox, then run it, then run the game from inside it.

Thanks for the advice regarding the dinosaur horn. I'm currently playing this game for the first time ever. I've returned to the series when AGD released their VGA remake of QfG 2. I'm in the village, practicing spear throwing, bridge jumping and playing awari. Does somebody tell me I need the dinosaur horn for the initiation, or do I just have to KNOW automatically I need to go out and find it? Also, I don't yet have the dispel potion. Can I get it when I need it or should I get it beforehand?

Hey, all! I have a new item to bring to the table with this game!

I have come across a rare event/easter egg.

When you go to dispel the leopardman lady, there appears to be a random chance of you oogling her when after she finishes changing. Your eyes pop out of your head, as does your tongue, and a "boing-oing!" sound plays. I've beaten this game 5+ times and haven't come across this before!

I've been trying to reproduce it so I can get a screenshot, but alas, it's very rare and I've been unable to do so.

Kimchi: Did you try to setup the sound differently at all in the install.exe?
