I downloaded and unzipped the files but can't seem to be able to run the game. I get the same errors and don't have a dosbox anywhere. Any hints, please?

thanks

This is my all-time favorite game! Im so extremely happy to have found it once again (played it on my Amiga 500 10 years ago, or more)

Having one problem though:
Tried to execute install.exe in DOSBox, and it tells me ->

"Error: The Floppy Drive containing Game Disk B must be the Current Directory"


Hmm... Any ideas how I do this?
Hey, can I ask how you got it to work?

Bandits was one of the first games I ever played, it was on a computer we got given. My brother and I figured out how to play it from scratch, with no manual or anything. Now I'm trying to play it again so I've transferred it to this computer but I can't get it to work. When I try and run it I get the message "Disk Error - Hit CR" and I think it is trying to read from the floppy drive. This computer is running Windows XP by the way.

And also, whoever asked, to get the Imperial Edict you have to get to 250 popularity. It seems a lot, but it can be done once you know what you're doing

Of course you have DOSBox, it's right there on Abandonia's home page. To the left there is written in huge, friendly letters "UTILITIES", and below that a link to programs. Click it. You'll find DOSBox there.

Then I must insist you read the FAQ and all the readmes and topics here on this forum on how to set it up and use it.
