Hi everyone. Thanks for your help with my previous problem! I have another question tonight and after playing w/ this myself and beating my head against the wall, I decided it was time to ask for help again.

I'm trying to run the cd version of Lands of Lore: Throne of Chaos, and things seemed to be going great at first. I had switched the z drive to my E drive where the CD is located, typed INSTALL.EXE and the install thing started, but when I came to the point where you have to put it into a specific directory, I kept getting a message saying that the directory could not be created. I really wasn't sure where to create it anyway, but I tried C, D, and E and nothing worked.

It's frustrating to get this far and not be able to play the game. Can anyone give me any clues as to how I might get past this point and where I should make my directory? Thanks!

Tracy

If E is mounted as CD ROM then you cannot use it! The directory can be created only on a writable disc.
Just a stupid question: did you mount correctly something to C or D (is the drive accessible in DOSBOX shell?)? It is not enough to mount only CD ROM.
