I did not have any problems installing WC3. What is the Setup of your Dosbox? You can try to install the game without using Dosbox or by mounting your HD using the option -freesize, but without a better description what you did I cannot tell you what to do.

At the first I want thank You for answer.

So, only one option in dosbox.conf that I change was:

ems=false;

beacuse without this installation procces not start. Rest of option are not changed.

And I start Dosbox witch this option:

dosbox /home/bartas/dos_box/

after dosbox run i execute this command:

mount d /media/dvd/ -t cdrom

I use SuSE linux but on WinXP problem is exacly this same.[/i]

What is this: "dosbox /home/bartas/dos_box/"

Sounds like he's not mounting his C: drive.

On 0.65 you shouldn't need the ems=false.
What directory did you specify as saving directory? Maybe you can post
a screenshot.
For the second problem: did you raise the reported disk free size
with the -freesize parameter?

I see it is in your home dir, but still make sure that you have writing permission in that directory.
