Someone on the Team17 forum had this problem with is Worms1:
He installed the game NOT in DOSBox but ran the game in DOSBox. When it was doing the DOS/4GW it said Please run Setup (or something like that)
He mounted the correct drives but it still did not work. He does not know about VOGONS but I will tell him about it if anybody here has any fixes.

I believe worms 1 wants mscdex to be represent mount the the worms directory once as c:\ drive and once as D:\ drive with -t cdrom

if worms is installed in c:\worms

mount c c:\
mount d c:\worms -t cdrom
c:
cd worms

Water flows down the stream
How to ask questions the smart way!

He has fixed the bug now but when he tries to start the game id does the movie but then it goes black (Good thing about CTRL+F9 is you can ternimate the DOSBox when that happens!)

There is/was. However this is not the time/place.
When accuracy improves the origional will work.
