OK, I just bought this game and have it. I also have dosbox .72. I have tried installing it, running it, copying and then installing it, all to no avail. What am I doing wrong? I tried mounting it as well. I just can't figure out what I am doing, and it has been a few years since I have used DOS.
TIA!!
(and to think I tell people I miss DOS!)

Thank you! I will try that - I could not find it in the little bit of searching I did.

Will it effect the version of Commander Keen I used it for a while back?
