I have an iBook G4, without Intel or PowerPC and I'm running the latest version of DosBox. I'm trying to get Princess Maker 2 (English) to run on the computer, and every time I type in the program it says "Invalid" or that I can't run it. I'm in "C:" and it finds the directory and all of its contents, so I know it sees the program there.

I'm wondering whether or not I can run PM2 on a Mac even with DosBox. I read some FAQs saying that you need to install the game onto your computer, but you can't install a .exe on a Mac w/o PPC (unless DosBox does this for you?). I've tried running the installation file and all that does is return a blank line.

Please let me know if there's anything I can do and, if so, what.

Help! Thanks!

Ok, I did all of that... and it just says "Program requires Windows to run."

I'm guessing I can't do anything else to make it work?
