  1. Create a directory for your game, e.g. "C:\DOSBox stuff\MyGame".
  2. Insert CD in drive.
  3. Start DOSBox.
  4. In DOSBox, mount up DOSBox's drive C: and D:

    Z:>mount C "C:\DOSBox stuff\MyGame"
    Z:>mount D "D:\" -t cdrom -ioctl

    (assuming that D:\ is your real CD/DVD drive)
  5. Install the game from D: to C:

    Z:>D:
    D:>install

    (or "setup", or whatever the command to start the installation is called. Check your Manual/Installation Guide for MyGame for the exact command to use)
  6. Configure sound, configure graphics, ...

    (when you configure sound and are asked about stuff like IO/IRQ/DMA/High DMA addresses, please verify that you use the same values as listed in "%ProgramFiles%\DOSBox-0.63\dosbox.conf")
  7. Start game.

    D:>C:
    C:>dir
    C:>mygame

    (or "run", or "play" or whatever the command to start the game is called. Check your Manual/Installation Guide for MyGame for the exact command to use)
