I know how to run games that are on my drive, but I have no clue where to start when it comes to playing from the cd.

I recently found my copy of KQ6, and dont know if I have to install and play it, or play from the disc...basically im lost.

Thanks in advance.

You can't play it from the CD. This is one of the few games that I don't play in DOSBox because of the improved graphics of the Windows version. Just replace the main executable with this one. Unzip, rename to SCIWV.EXE and overwrite the one in the installed directory. Note that you will have to set movieplayer=0 in the SIERRA.INI in the installed folder, so if you want to see the intro movie, just play Toon.avi out side of the game.

Did you use setup.exe or install.exe?
