Adding to The Fifth Horseman's advice (thanks for explaining that, BTW!), DOS games should be in a subdirectory called "Dosgames" or "Oldgames" (whichever you prefer, I prefer "Dosgames". This will be the "root" directory when you mount it.

So when mounting the C drive using Dosgames as the subfolder, you would type:
mount c c:\dosgames and press ENTER.

As previously stated, it's best to keep all DOS games in one folder to keep them organized. Don't feel intimidated by the commands, they do seem daunting at first, but after becoming accustomed to them, they become like second nature.

I have both the original diskette and CD-ROM version, both which I have recently acquired. I only installed the game files, and am satisfied with the movies playing from the CD. The CD-ROM version manual doesn't even have the paragraphs from the diskette version. The only thing I miss from the CD version is Bilbo turning invisible at his party in the intro. I've always liked that bit from the diskette version. Enjoy the game!
