So I've had dosbox for awhile but I never used it. well I found a copy of King's Quest vi rummaging through some stuff and I popped it in my computer. My mac computer. I don't know how to run it what do I do? Can I just run the CD on DOSBOX or is it more complicated?

DOS is hard, I don't know anything and I'm lost without a mouse.

Read my 60 Seconds Guide to DOSBox (and don't just read it - follow it too).

If that doesn't help, come back with details on how you mounted your C and D drives, how you did the install, how you configured sound, music etc.

Reading the aptly named README file will be a good idea too.
