As I am installing all my old games on Windows 7 DOSBOX is my best friend, but I recently came upon the strangest error that I have ever seen. When I run the program (CHEWY : ESCAPE FROM F5) I get the error message :

ERROR FROM FILER:
couldn't open error-file

I am then booted out. This occurs immediately after it begins to load DOS/4GW

Does anyone know what this means? I have never seen it before and have been running DOSBOX since 0.65

Slayerdude, please do not necropost. Also if you think DOSBox has a coding error, please elaborate in a seperate thread.
But please do yourself the favor and make sure that you operate DOSBox correctly and are using your own real CDs (or images from your own CDs)
