You should read the instructions that are in the box oh wait you don't have them

Is that some piss weak attempt at wit? I come here looking for legitimate help for a game I have not played in years and this is all I get? That's really the best you can do you?

Well, for starters you should tell us what have you tried so far.

I come here looking for legitimate help

Do you have a legitimate copy of the game or just some bin you downloaded?

I had the actual CD and had made .bin of it to back it up because i knew I would inevitably loose it. I am able to open it with Daemon tools but when it comes to installing it, I get a message saying the OS is incompatible which is obvious. I just need to know how to install it using DOSbox, specifically the commands.

...which is quite lengthy explained in the postings in the Guides forum as well as the documentation of dosbox.

If DOSBox is too complicated for you, this particular game is supported by ScummVM at this point. No command lines there.

DOSBox is able to mount CD images directly without need for Daemon Tools or whatever. Read the documentation that comes with DOSBox, as well as the posts in the guides forum.

So I have a .bin file of this game which I mount with Daemon tools.

That's an interesting trick.
Also it's usually a BIN/cue set.

This is the first command line based emu I have had to use.

Do you mean DOSBox? Since you haven't post anything to indicate that's what you're using.

So please be gentle. Thanks heaps

Make a folder C:\DOSGAMES
Place the BIN/cue set in that folder. Let's assume it's called IHNMAIMS.
In DOSBox type this:
MOUNT C C:\DOSGAMES -t dir -freesize 400
IMGMOUNT D C:\DOSGAMES\IHNMAIMS.cue -t iso
D:
INSTALL

He mentioned DOSBox in post #6. I'll move the thread...

Hey people especially SKARDAVNELNATE, its now installed. However I cannot locate my sound drivers in the sound set up. I have realtech drivers and for some reason they were not showing up.

DOSBox emulates a Sound Blaster so select the option that reflects this.

It says it cannot save configuration

Sorry I managed to fix the sound issue, but why is it I cannot just go into dosbox and type scream to play the game once I have closed dosbox? Its absurd if I have to keep doing the above steps every time I want to play.

It's absurd (and self-speeking pretty annoying) to answer this since it can be found in the README.

Arg this is truly the most irritating VM I have ever used. Everything appears to happen so randomly.

Wow mate you truly are an insightful cat. Not only do you not indicate what I'm meant to be looking for in the dosbox readme, but you also seem to forget I HAVE LITTLE EXPERIENCE WITH COMMAND LINE!!. I mean jesus, I ask a few bloody questions and all I get is indignation. I just want the freaking game working and all the setting properly configured. Is that too much to ask? I don't need some bloody twat thinking they're better then me because I happen to miss a readme.

No it doesn't.
And here's the section you need to read from the readme:
The whole thing.

I HAVE LITTLE EXPERIENCE WITH COMMAND LINE!!

But you can read. Everything there.
