Default UFO enemy unknown instsallation

Hi there. I'm having a problem installing UFO. Once I've mounted dos box and ran the install.bat file, it asks me to direct it to the cd drive where the cd is. As I don't have the cd where should I direct this to ?

To the directory where the game is.
Remember the paths in DOSBox are a little different from the real ones.

Indeed, that was me.

I'm having a similar problem with UFO. Im not sure what to do after i run the install. it tells me to redirect with 'cdsetup C:' but when i put that in, it does nothing. when i try running GO.com, it appears to loop between the tactical and geoscape views endlessly.

not sure when im doing wrong here. any help would be great. thanks!

I'm not sure what exactly you're doing to begin with.
What Windows version you've got?
Are you trying to run the DOS or Windows version of the game?
If it's the DOS version, did you try running it in VDMSound or DOSBox?
If in DOSBox, what exact commands (with precise syntax - that's important!) have you entered?

Also did the game, your system or the emulator give you any error messages? If yes, please post them in their exact text.
