Error Installing

Post by thelancer93 »

I really am unsure if this is the appropriate place to post this, but I've searched everywhere and I can't find an answer. I've downloaded and installed Daggerfall from http://www.elderscrolls.com/daggerfall/ (elder scrolls website) using DOSBox .74. I've done everything I read I am supposed to do, yet even after deleting and reinstalling all files three time, I still get the 0 Error. It also says windows is not found. Then the second time I try to play the game, hoping it will have fixed, I get a critical error message. Someone help, please.

Everything I entered into DOS to install:

mount c c:\dos -freesize 1000
mount d c:\dos\daggercd -t cdrom -label Daggerfall
c:
cd\dagger
dagger

I also set the memsize to 32.
I chose 'Huge' for the file size.
Used auto detect for sound card.

I think the label should be "Daggerfa" (without quotes), not "Daggerfall". In DOS, file names (and drive labels) cannot be longer than 8 characters.
