I recently acquired a cd version of the game Pilgrim Quest. During the install, when the user chooses the soundcard, the program makes a gigantic assumption that you use a startup disk. When you select the soundcard it insists on copying the drivers to your startup disk, which is presumes to be the A:.
Immediately a box pops up "insert boot disk in a:", and after clicking it will come back and say "no startup disk found". Beneath the box is an option that says, "change start-up disk", however the error message prevents you from click on it. Clicking the error box makes it go away and reappear, and after 3 or 4 times it kicks you back to the sound card selection.
I have attempted to mount a folder as the A: (mount a .\games\PilgrimQ\a\ -t floppy), however I get the same message. I supposed it was looking for specific start-up files, so I copied the contents of the Z: to the A: and reran the install, however I have the same problem.
There is a floppy rip of pilgrim quest floating around that I tried out, and it worked just fine, however I'd like to take advantage of the cd version (the floppy rip is a meg or 2, while the cd is 150megs or so... so I assume there is significant additions).
I am usuing dosbox 0.74 and a file dump of the cd. When I tried to use a bin/cue it stated there were problems, so insted I just copied the contents to a folder and mounted it as a cd (there are no audio tracks on the disc)
Mount command is:
mount d .\games\PilgrimQ\cd\ -t cdrom
Any suggestions or assistance would be appreciated.
