I have a Windows 95 compatible kids game. It's called Dr. Seuss Kindergarten (a 1998 CD-Game and it is an original disc not a downloaded game). My kid used to play it in my old PC. However, it was unable to run in my new PC. So I search the web and see what I can do about it. I found this software DOSBOX.
So I try to run it under DOSBOX 0.73. I did follow the 60 seconds guide to getting your games..... .But I can't get past step 5. I mounted a C drive for DOSBOX as suggested in the guide and I was able to mount my CD-ROM as suggested in the guide. And I was able to scan the CD within DOSBOX by typing D:\> dir and find the installation file which is called setup.EXE . But when I try to install the game within DOSBOX by typing
D:\> setup.exe
I got a message that says something like "This programe must be run under windows".
Is there a way I can modify the setup file so that I can install it within DOSBOX? Does it mean that it is not a DOS game, therefore I can't use DOSBOX to run it?
Anybody out there can help? My kid is very upset about not being able to play the game.
Many thanks!!
