Does anyone Remember it? I've been trying to get it to run on my system and the game engine has a problem interfacing with windows XP. Ergo I got dos box. But the game requires the CD to run, and when in DOSBox it keeps pestering me for the CD, and mounting an image with daemon tools doesn't work either.

Originally I got DOSbox because the game would boot up fine initially but then I'd get the following message just before the game would actually load up.
"CDplayer - Fatal Error - cdromread - READ STATUS ERROR=ffff8103"
So I put the thing in windows 95 compatability mode and still nothing.

Any suggestions on how to fix either problem? How do I mount a CD so the game can read it? Or is there a way I can get it to run without DOSBox?

Specs:
System: Windows XP
Processor: P4 3.0 GHz
RAM: 512 DDR400
Graphics Card: ATI Radeon 9550

You will probably want to read the accompanying documentation (like the README file), which answers your question (and a lot other questions as well).
