Dosbox Error This Program Requires Microsoft Windows
I installed DOSBox 0.63 on my computer with XP-OS. In DOSBox, I mount up DOSBox's drive C: and F: mount c c: DOSBox stuff MyGame mount f f: -t cdrom -ioctl Drive F is now mounted as Cdrom. It's okay so far. But when I try to install the game from F: to C: using 'Setup' I get the error message 'This program requires Microsoft Windows' What the hell should I do???
Cause if I try to install via setup.exe in win it says it requires DOS. Newbie Posts: 3 Joined: 2006-2-20 @ 17:27 Location: Sweden. Well I've got a converter so it'll work just fine I've figured out what the problem is.
Dosbox For Windows 10
You run setup.exe from your cdrom in windows, and the installation process will be cancelled by win itself saying: 'You need DOS 6.22 or higher to play this game' I've been struggling for hours and I've found a way to make the install anyway. Making a bootdisc, restart, and start computer with cdrom support. You'll need a FAT32 partion damnit. Of course I only have NTFS, and I'm not so happy about creating a new partion right now.
Maybe someone could help me in this moment. Do you think ntfs4dos or Active ntfs reader will work it out? Newbie Posts: 3 Joined: 2006-2-20 @ 17:27 Location: Sweden.

Sorry for the confusion I went off of what i was told and should have done some research prior. Appreciate all the help! That means it's a 32-bit program. That's good news.
Odds are high with a bit of tweaking it will run just fine under Windows 7. Or a 16-bit Windows app (more likely).
Could go either way. It really depends on when the program was developed during the Windows 98 lifecycyle.
Early in Windows 98? Yeah, probably 16-bit.
XP Mode is probably the least complicated way to address this. Assuming the program isn't using some sort of hardware license hasp. XP Mode doesn't like thos e at all. If the program showed up around 98b or after? Hopefully 32-bit.
