I just recently found my old King's Quest 6 CD and decided that I would try and play it. I have installed it through DOSBox, and have mounted DOSBox to the folder c:\DOS\SIERRA. I'm pretty sure that I am doing this correctly. There is only one executable file in the folder, so I am using it to try and start the program. Whenever I try to run the file, I get a message which says "This program requires Microsoft Windows".

I would greatly appreciate it if someone could help me out.

Thanks. 😀

Oops 😊

I'm sorry about that. I forgot that I already sent an email. I've been looking all over the web to figure out how to fix the problem.

Sorry again!

There is only one executable file in the SIERRA folder. Are the windows version and the DOS version of the game both on the same disc?
