Another Newbie, downloaded Dosbox0.61-win32-installer
but can't open file.
ERROR Message: The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal
instruction. CS:Odae IP:0119 OP: 65 63 74 20 61

NOTE: On first download it unzipped OK but there was no

Check the file you downloaded. Is it really the installer? Somebody reported here similar problems then finding out that in reality it was an HTML file .... The attempt to run it lead of course to crash.

After you run the file, installer starts. No need to unzip anything. It is EXE file.
