It is easy to install a game through DOSBox if you need to : your cdrom drive must be identified by a letter, such as “D”.įor example, the install path here is D:\Fan\SETUP.EXE, so you will have to enter some command lines just as follows (explained underneath) : On the Rayman by his fans cdrom, the installer is located under your_cd\Fan\SETUP.EXE and it can be launched directly from windows ! Install through DOSBox This can be done within Windows XP and probably with windows 7 and 8 as well, but I will not detail the manipulation here. Note :In some cases, the game was designed for an older windows version, in which case you have to launch the install using a compatibility mode. Just launch the installer, and if it doesn’t work, you have to install it through DOS. Some games had to be installed on windows, some directly in DOS. Now search the cdrom for a file called INSTALL.EXE, or SETUP.EXE, something like that. Take your dusty cdrom and insert it into your drive. Let’s go for step 1 : installing the game.
