Which dosbox version are you using?

Maybe you have some freely available basic sources and
libraries that show the problem, you can post them here.

I'm using DOSBox 0.60 as any other version does not work on win 98

I'm trying to run the library called RelLib, but say wrong command

Don't know if the releases SHOULD work with win98,
but try the one mentioned at
CVS Builds By AEP

Is RelLib an executable or how is it used?

RelLib is in a bat file

C:\QBasic\qb /l relib /ah

does qb work on its own ?

0.63 does work on 98. if it doesn't then it's usually your videocard that is too blame.

qb /L rel /ah
Works fine with dosbox0.63

And it would have been nice if you posted a link where
the library could be downloaded (seems freeware), as
this greatly reduces searching times.....

Works fine, too (v0.61 and v0.63), cmd-line:
qb /L rel /ah

Do you start it through the batch file? If so,
did you modify the paths accordingly?
