I just downloaded the Dos Emaluator 0.65 and Ran the Game Twinsens Odyssey. I couldn't save though, so i tried installing it, and it told me that it could not acess a subdirectory recquired to install the game.

Basically it couldn't make the folder 'Twinsen' in My C drive.

i then created the folder on my own, and then told it to acess that folder, but that didn't work either. It told me that the path specified couldn't hold a subdirectory or a file.

Pretty frustrating.

Anybody know how i can install the program?

The Disc has a separate folder for Win95 and ms dos. IN the MS dos folder was the instalation for Ms dos.
I mounted it like this

mount c c:\dos

then in C:\Dos\ i typed 'install'

After that it said i had an error in which the program could not create a new subdirectory needed. I think because you can not edit files or folders that are on a disk.

Do i need to put all the info on the Disk onto a floppy and mount the A drive?

I will try to figure out the error code Number.

Disc? What disc? The CD-ROM with the game?
