I finally got the game installed. But i cant get it running as you described. The dosbox freezes and the it crashes.

Maybe i have to make some alterations to the dosbox config.

So what do i have to change ???

BRGDS

Installed Strike Commander
 

Step 1.Download the strike commander zip file.
Step 2.Make 2 folders under c:\
c:\disks and c:\strike

Step 3.Extract the zip file to c:\disks
Step 4.Extract all the zip files:

SCKEYS.ZIP to SCKEYS
SCSD_1.ZIP to SCSD_1
SCSD_2.ZIP to SCSD_2
SCSD_3.ZIP SCSD_3
SCTO1-1.ZIP to SCTO1-1
SCTO1-2.ZIP to SCTO1-2
SCTO1-3.ZIP to SCTO1-3
STRCOM_1.ZIP to STRCOM_1 and rename to disk1
STRCOM_2.ZIP to STRCOM_2 and rename to disk2
STRCOM_3.ZIP to STRCOM_3 and rename to disk3
STRCOM_4.ZIP to STRCOM_4 and rename to disk4
STRCOM_5.ZIP to STRCOM_5 and rename to disk5
STRCOM_6.ZIP to STRCOM_6 and rename to disk6
STRCOM_7.ZIP to STRCOM_7 and rename to disk7
STRCOM_8.ZIP to STRCOM_8 and rename to disk8
STR_CRK.ZIP to STR_CRK

Step 5.Using dosbox 0.73 do the following:
mount c c:\strike
mount a c:\disks
a:
cd STR_CRK
STRCRK.exe
"Disk used"= a:
cd disk1
install.exe
ignore the memmory error.
do not make a boot disk.
Leave everything else as default
Press enter for each disk.
Map generation takes a long time
