Ive been having trouble getting the game to run aswell

I know the basics of dosbox and i do know how to unzip as well :P

whever i try to run any of the .com files it wont run anything, there are no exe files. the only file that does anything is the file _INSTALL.bat when i run that it gives me a list of files that "cannot be found" even though I am staring right at them.

any help would be appreciated, i rember playing this game as a child and am looking forward to playing it again (and finally beating it)

The command you need to run is SIERRA.exe I believe, dont running about _INSTALL or anything like that. I dont know why people are using DosBox with Gold Rush though- I've got a 2.8ghz machine and it runs at the normal, playable speed in native Windows.
