I'd like to run the Screamer Rally from an image file under Windows 7 with DOSBox-0.73, but it didn't working. I mounted the image, I installed the game, but if I run the setup, I got a black screen and nothing happened. After this, I tried to run the game - without the suitable settings -, then Screamer Rally didn't find the "C:\SR\DATA\GAME.DAT". Why? Please help! Thanks.

Setup fails when using auto/max cycles, turn it down a bit to make it work correctly.

if i decreased the cycles, the setup was working, but unfortunately i have another problem.

screamer rally wants the game disc, that's why i mounted it with daemon tools in first step, like a cd-rom (G:\). after this, i mounted the G:\ drive in dosbox with this command:
Z:\>MOUNT D G:\ -t cdrom -usecd 1 -ioctl / (G:\ drive is the second cd-rom)
ideally, the mount was succesfull, but the game didn't find the cd.
SCREAMER.CFG contains this:
C:\SR D: C:\SR c
if i mounted the iso within dosbox, thus i didn't use daemon tools, the result was same.

please help. thanks.

Screamer Rally has red book audio tracks, so try creating a cue/bin and mounting the cue file instead of your iso.
