so me and my dad decided to try out dosbox for One must fall 2097 it worked perfectly! we accomplished to beat the game with every robot and with every enhancement.

now we want to play call of cthulu: Prisoner of Ice
we own the cd and a iso as well as an cd ripped version.
our first try was working. sound worked no graphical glitches and such on.
then we came at the first part where it auto saves. then there is a random shut down!
there comes an error pop up

:
Fatal Error --> ERROR TYPE : FILE-02: 'TEST' (refer to manual)
C:\INFOGRAM\ICE>

Torrent sites are mostly pirate sites. They are Not allowed here.

If you are running the game directly from the CD, then it might be trying to write a file to the CD (which is of course read-only).

Check out the 60 Seconds Guide.

Have you referred to the (printed!) manual, like written on the screenshot?
