I'm new to DOSBox and I kinda figured out how it works.
However I have a problem with running EWJ2 (Earthworm Jim 2)
I mounted D:\Games\EWJ2\ and I tried to run the EWJ2.EXE file in it, as I should.
But when I press enter the following line comes up

*No CDROM drives found. Make sure MSCDEX is installed.*

What should I do next?

I triend the same with EWJ1, but that has the same problem.

Hopefully someone can help me out.

mount d D:\Games\EWJ2\ -t cdrom
)
