Hello
I have an original Warcraft 2 iso file. I've mounted it via Daemon tools with drive G:

I have to install game into the system. I've started DOSBox and typed:

mount d g:\

It mounts virtual disk G like a D: at DOSBOX.

Then i type d: and start setup.exe. The setup is starting but then it crashing with HEX symbols. 😒

System: Notebook Asus X550L, Windows 10, x64.

Please help.Thank you

p.s. I don't want to play "preinstalled" (=cutted) version from many sources in Internet. I want to play it with an original music etc.

.iso doesn't contain soundtracks. Anyway, did you mount c: drive first? Maybe the setup expects C drive to exist.

I have a question on the same game. I have the original CD-ROM and can get it to play properly in DOS box but every time I close it out, I need to re mount the CD-ROM and then reinstall it. Then any game play I tried to save is gone. Any input on how to fix this issue.

Folliw the 60 seconds guide, install the game, keep the mountings and start the game from the mounted c drive's directory WC installed to.
