Problem installing 2.13 patch

After just finishing Oblivion, I got the urge Daggerfall again. So I dug out my old copy of Daggerfall from way back when, and unfortunately the CD is damaged so it won't install. So I found a copy online and installed it.

When I try to install the 2.13 patch, it asks to put the disc in the drive at the Maps.BSA update section. It won't recognize my old CD, so I can't get past this part... What can I do to get around this?

I haven't even launched the game yet so reinstalling etc is a perfectly viable option... I am open to any suggestions.

I believe I have it working under DosBox. If I have any further problems I will post again. If you don't hear from me, assume I'm busy playing :D

I'm REALLY new to DosBox and I'm still kinda stuck on the MAPS.BSA problem. I just downloaded Daggerfall today from Bethesda. Did everything right up to the patch fix. Now it says for me to insert the DF cd for the Maps.bsa file. How am I supposed to make it find a cd that I don't have?

Did you mount anything from the beginning?

Yeah. C: Drive is the folder my Arena and Daggerfall folders are in. D: Drive is my actual D: Drive. Should I mention I'm scatterbrained?

It should not be your actual D: drive.
