The non-source CM2 patch is available from my site: http://pferrie.tripod.com/misc/dosbox.htm Download the cm2fix.zip, unzip that file into the CM2 directory, then run cm2fix.com instead of cm2.bat, each time you want to run the game. Thanks for that …

Thanks, as I said I am quite a novice with this type of thing so what do I do with that?
