TheChosen According to the HOMM review on Abandonia, you also need to mount your cd-rom drive.


IMPORTANT!!!!! In order for the game to run you must mount your cdrom in DOSbox by using the following command: MOUNT * -t cdrom *:

Problem loading HoMM

After I downloaded Homm, I unzipped it into my dosbox\CDrive folder. I start Dosbox & type dir/w, then cd Heroes. I see the list of files & folders available. I type "heroes", which is the .exe file & it looks like it's loading & stops. I then get the message, " Unable to access CD Drive". I don't understand. All the other games work fine. Did I miss some special instruction somewhere ?? Please help !!!

Data it's more common to mount the cdrom as D instead of G

Your real cdrom doesn't matter.

Elon Yariv So I need to mount a drive then to mount another drive with the Cdrom letter... Sorry I'm quite confused... which one should I choose later? I always thought it didn't matter which letter I use

mount c c:\games\heroes
mount g(my cdrom drive) c:\games\heroes -t cdrom [I usally only do this...]
c:

Is that what I need to do?

Edit:

Woohoo!!! It worked!! Thanks data, I did just like I said above. Now to kill some enemies! I already fight against brilient ones.
