After bog-standard procedure of typing 'mount D "H:\DOSBOX\SHAKII", then "D:", I then typed in SHAKII to launch a game(which I managed to find full version of), only to find out this game doesn't run properly on my DOSBox. To find out what's wrong with the game, I set my cycles to 20 on the next DOSBox run, then ran SHAKII. After a while, DOSBox shown a message "Cannot fing SHAKII.CFG"(fing?). Then the game runs. Then the game says "divide error" and "cannot find SHAKII.ID"(even though mounted directory misses nothing). Then I was sent to the highscores. Pressing absolutely ANY button results either in softlock, or game crash with "divide error".

Does anyone have any ideas?

D isn't standard. C is
Using an original copy of the game install the game in DOSBox and try again.

Now it works fine.
Never thought about that one. Thanks.
