well the only way I could try opening it was the DOSbox....and when the game "started", it only said that I needed to insert the cd...
Is there another way I could open it? ~Mariah~ |

Nope, used DosBox too and it worked fine back when I tested it. I'll give it a try again.

AWWW I'm so sad...I really wanna play this game! LOL
I can't open it, I tried many times. It says "please insert trolls disc 1". I don't know what else to do... This is what I did: -I dl-ed the file. -I unzipped it. (many "files" got created, and there was one that said TROLLS and it's an exe file, I copied it). -I went to the C drive and created a folder named "oldgames". -I pasted the TROLLS file in the "oldgames" folder. -I opened the DosBox: "mount C C:\oldgames, then C:, then TROLLS" and it says "please insert trolls disc 1"... Am I doing something wrong, or is there something I can do to get the game to start? Tnx. ~Mariah~ |

Yep. Got to extract all files, not just Trolls.exe.

ok, so I extracted all the files and it created a folder "trolls" in "my received files".
Then what do I do? (I pasted the whole folder in "oldgames" and tried opening it is DosBox, but it didn't work. Then I pasted the "TROLLS" file from the "trolls" folder into the "oldgames", but it said "insert disc one" again.) |

I'm not sure if you ran it with or without the files in the same folder, so I'll list it step by step.
1) Download the game from the site. 2) Open it (usually with Winzip) 3) Extract all files to the same folder 4) Start up DosBox 5) Mount the drive you put the folder in (usually C:\ ) 6) Go to the folder (still under DosBox) 7) Type Trolls and press Return. If you follow this step by step, it should work fine  k: |

What do you mean by "Go to the folder (still under DosBox)"?
