Hello everyone, I really need anyone's assistance with this. Every time I try to play my Barbie colouring game in DOSBox, I get an error message saying "File not found in module BARBIE at address 0138:66FO. I checked the folder, but the file (barbie.exe) is actually there. Could someone please help me with this? Thank you in advance.

It is not looking for BARBIE.EXE - it is BARBIE.EXE that is complaining about some other file that it can not find. Maybe it will work if you re-install the game?

Read my 60 Seconds Guide to DOSBox (and don't just read it - follow it too).

If that doesn't help, come back with details on how you mounted your C and D drives, how you did the install, how you configured sound, music etc.

Reading the aptly named README file will be a good idea too.

I'm having the same issue. I posted a new topic on this a few weeks ago with a ZIP file contained to it. But the threat was closed because it was considered warez/illegal. I can get into that.

Has anyone found a solution for this?

Warez and illegal downloads are STILL not supported here; ask for help where you got the game. And don't bump old threads.
