You should read the 60 seconds guide to the letter. Check the GUIDES Section on this forum.

I do that, but it doesn't install, it fails saying cant create directory Disk 1 2 3 4 and then it asks to insert disk 2

Are you using the original floppies to install the game?

What "mount" lines are you using?

No, I downloaded the game from a website called MyAbandonWare.com

the mount lines I have tried are

Mount C C:/oldgames/death-bringer
C:
Install

Unable to install

then i tried

Mount C C:/FakeCdrive

Mount D C:/oldgames/Death-bringer

D:

Install

Unable to install,

Buti got less error messages doing it the second way, I still can't seem to get it to start. correctly

Then you should go ask about it there. Now this thread will be locked.

Before it is, I will simply add that the game probably doesn't need to be installed, and if you're having trouble with dragging-and-dropping, then you should mount c:\oldgames as drive C, and then try running the game from C:\death-~1 within DOSBox.

But since you are not using the original disks, there's really no telling what might have gone wrong with this copy of the game, which is why there's little point in asking.

Its just a download hub, I am asking here because I've seen it work on Dosbox, I'm trying to get it to install so it will set the coloring right, If thats possible with out installing it I would like to know how.

As Jorpho said. We don't support abandonware here.
