No offense taken Nathan. Basically I type "dosemu install.bat" while in
the install directory of the cd. It asks me what drive to install to and
I type C. It then asks about the directory for the doom install. When I
respond to that it tells me "More than one of those directories doesn't
exist!" It then asks me to reenter the directory and nothing I've tried
works.
If I start dosemu without any other parameters it gives me a promt like:
C:\>
when it loads. Any ideas?
Thanks,
