Well, if someone has an idea of what to do with this (It appears even in 98 and true MS-Dos mode), please tell me.

Oh, right. Some explanation of what it is might help. I get this when I try to run the Daggerfall install.exe, so I can turn off the nudity. Um...If that's not enough info, just tell me what I need to add.

How big is the program? Can you boot into DOS with a boot disk and then run it. IIRC this program works by extending memory. So If Windows has already loaded, it may not release the needed memory addresses when switching back to DOS_ala_98, which is not exactly a pure DOS environment.

You can build a DOS 6.something or other disk set from the 98 cd. IIRC there is a DOS folder on the cd.

How did you do that? I had tried exactly that before only to receive the same error: it could only be installed on the first partition. Do you need to pass an argument to the installer? (Never tried that route)

I think my 98 disk is borked ...

(Sorry for interrupting your thread, I'm curious now )

Nope, just told it to install 98 to the D drive

No problem.

Unfortunatly, I'm using a backup copy of our 98 cd and it doesn't seem to have a dos folder on it. Nor can I find the original. It is 'somewhere'.
