i did as you told me, but then it told me it was unable to access my cdrom drive.
so i made a copy of the heroes directory (the one extracted)
then i mounted one directory as a cdrom drive and went to the other and tried there to start the game and it worked

thanks for your help

Hmm. maybe it just needs a cd drive mounted - my DOSBox mounts my physical CD drive and heroes didn't mind there being nothing in there.

you're right.
i mounted one of my hard drives (which doesn't contain Heroes) and it worked.
does your dosbox mounts your cd-drive automatically? if so could you tell me how to do it?

Open up DOSBox.conf (Start > Programs > DOSBox), go to the bottom of the file where it says:

[autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.

Below that just add mount e -t cdrom e:\ (or whatever your cd-drive is).

That's the one. Mine also mounts the DOSProgs folder on my HDD as C:\ then clears the screen and does dir /w so I know what's in there.
