We've got this wonderful sticky in Troubleshooting - "A beginner's guide to DOSBox: You need DOSBox to run most of games here!!!". Please read it, and feel free to ask any further questions you might still have afterwards.

Well, now I've seen it all. A Phantom game! I love the concept, it's very clever. The game is lovely to play as well. My only complaint is that, of course, my dear Erik isn't a villain. But, game writiers don't place too much time into thier plots, which is fin. Let's just remember who the man behin the mask really is for the sake of all us Phans.
I remain,

Most Obediently Yours,

Try phantom.bat I would say.

Thank you but it won't work.I put cd phantom.bat,it says unable to change to phantom.bat.I tried cd return~1 it works but the other command it says c:\return~1 so i write for the rest phantom.bat but it says Illegal command.I hope you understand what I mean.

[dosraider]

Yes, I understand what you meant.

Don't take this bad, but you clearely don't know how dosbox works, neither how to get games to work in it.

Take a good look@

It will be helpfull.
Try at least to follow the guidelines.

Once you get the hang of it, it's a piece of cake, really.

Your c:\return~1 for starters, shorten the foldername to less then 8 chars, no spaces or fancy stuff. (make it \rotp\ or something, whatever .....)

Thanks for your quick reply.I'll redownload the game and see if I can make it work.I did alot of reading about dosbox,but I'll keep on reading again til I understand what I'm doing wrong.I'm a virgin when it come to computers.If I get it to work I'll let you know.For now I'm playing Jack the ripper.
