It looks like you didn't mount the CDROM. If you installed the game from the CD and then run it with the CDROM mounted at the same drive letter, it should definitely run. Also make sure you do not move the game to a new folder after you install it. No, no - it can't be that simple. Remember, he …

There are limits to the imgmount command. I know there is a limit to the length of the parameter list, which I why I keep my ISO's on a short path, e.g.: imgmount D "G:\ISOs\WC3-1.iso" "G:\ISOs\WC3-2.iso" "G:\ISOs\WC3-3.iso" "G:\ISOs\WC3-4.iso" -t iso There might also be a limit to how many images …

Try following my 60 Seconds Guide to DOSBox when installing the program. If that doesn't help, come back with details on how you mounted your C and D drives, and how you did the install.
