My copy of Catacomb 3D to run in DOSBox to run it seems to hang before it even starts. I bought it second hand at a yard sale, but according to the integrity checks I ran on the files they are fine.
System specs:
1.7 Ghz Pentium M (can not remember which exact one but I do know it is based on the Donthan architecture)
1 GB of ram
ATI mobility Radeon 7500

Still doesnt mean the data is corrupt or incomplete, which is likely as i would expect your installing off 3.5 floppies. My recommendation is to buy the DRM free electronic version on gog.com. Its very cheap and you also get all of the episodes.

The other possibility is that your directories are not correctly mounted. See the 60 Seconds Guide.
