oh so you're trying to run a different game than testdrive? of course you need different command

you need to run an excutable. excutables have "EXE" extension, both in windows and dos, why does that reterded micro$oft have extensions hidden by default? then people don't know anything about files at all

anyways in oder to see what excutables are in a directory you can use command dir *.exe. * is a wildcard that means "anything", so the command is going to list all the files with any name that end with .exe -what you want.

then look for an exe that looks like one that might run your game. it can be start.exe go.exe or "name of the game".exe "acronym of the name of the game".exe, anything.

sometimes games are run via bat files, rather run those when you see some. so in order to list all the bat files you write dir *.bat ..

edit:bobbin was first
