I am trying to run the SETUP.EXE file for the game "The Curse Of Monkey Island" but for some reason every time I try to launch this file DOSBOX automatically inserts the word "win" in front of the words "SETUP.EXE" DOSBOX then returns the error "Illegal Command: win. I am sorry if this is a rather stupid question but I could not find any help on this anywhere, please could someone tell me what I am doing wrong.

What does your documentation of the game tell about minimum system requirements?

Mobygames/Curse-Of-Monkey-Island

Hint: Try ScummVM instead of DOSBox.

Klimawandel.

system requirements:
OS: Windows 95
CPU: Pentium 90 or faster
Memory: 16MB RAM
CD-ROM: 2X CD-ROM
Graphics Card: PCI Grphics Card
Sound Card: 16-bit sound card
It uses Direct X 5 but I don't think this is the problem, as I said it won't even install
I will try that thanks
