I've got an interesting problem which i can't understand why it wouldn't work.

Whenever i try to play toonstruck, it always asks for disk one. But after i put it in, it doesn't do anything.

But for some reason, after installing the game everytime, i can play the game. Hell, even after installing the second cd and asking for cd 1 it accepts it when i put it in and game loads up. But it won't work if i wanted to play Toonstruck another time after been installed.

I doubt it could be a mounting problem. I was able to install the game with no problems.

Heres the code i placed in the dosbox config file:

mount C C:\burst
mount E E:\ -t cdrom -usecd -ioctl
C:

Any ideas as to what could be wrong?

Try this:

instead of

mount C C:\burst
mount E E:\ -t cdrom -usecd -ioctl
C:

mount C C:\burst
mount D E:\ -t cdrom -usecd 0 -ioctl
C:

(Maybe the game is baffled as to why there is no drive d present, in addition the -usecd flag expects a number)

Good Luck

Wow, i had the same exact thing and was going nuts... A quick workaround turned out to be, after starting dosbox and mounting the cd:
1) start setup.exe
2) hit install toonstruck
3) it will tell you that the game is already installed and ask if you'd like to reinstall - say no
4) exit setup
5) run toonstrk.bat
6) profit

I honestly don't understand why it won't start any other way... i hope it helps anyone who happens to have the same problem
