hello everyone,

i have a question about a computer game im tryin to run and im getting really confused, the game is a 1994 amtex game called gonefishing 🤣 i know... its very addictive,

I will attemp to explain the problem,

i go in to dos box and type,

mount c c:/games

c:/

cd gonefishing

c:/GONFISHING/setup

now it starts to load here and then comes up with an error which says

error reading config file: #5

now i have no idea what this means and would really love to get this game to run.

let me explain my computer its just basic standard dell optiplex gx 280 i think,
