IS there something i have done wrong? i'm using windows XP and running it from my laptop. Do i need to run it from dos, if so can someone give me the exact words to use?

Sounds like you've got a problem.

Download the DOS version, and use DosBox to run the game. You can download it here.

Ok ive got dos. I've gone through the step by step guide on another game. I tried to install it from there but literally im a total noob to this kinda thing. I tried everything to get it to run, its keep on telling me

To setup ufo enemy unknown

change directory to c\dos then enter
cd setup followed by your name of the drive

i do not understand this. Last night i had the introduction working but now i acn't seem to do it, Any step by step hints here?

In the directory where you put UFO, type in setup and press [ENTER] to run the game's setup program.

Right so if i put it in my

hdd C:
a folder called dos is there.
inside dos there is another folder called CDrive and its all in there,

Whats the directory i have to put in to get there

sorry about all of this

if you have msn please add [BEEEP]@hotmail.com and help me out. I'm gutted but i want to learn how to do these things

You might want to check out the official DosBox FAQ, and particularly this part of it. It is quite helpful for users unfamiliar with DosBox

I wonder if it would be possible to give this game a forum of its own on Abandonia, instead of a thread?

Seeing as there's more posts in this one megathread than on two other Abandonia forums...

Sir, your request is highly irregular!

And I like it. :P

Permeant - or anyone who knows...

Edit is not a part of DOSBox and TextEdit in OS X isn't seeing any text in UFOCD.BAT at all. How did you edit the batch file?

Thanks,
Daniel
