I gave up on this 3 months ago (although you say it's not more complicated). Even though I've been programming computers for 15 years I can't figure this out. I suggest you dumb it down if you can.

I'm not sure if I understand all of your questions, but here goes. Original game? Yes. Mount lines? mount c "c:\hq" Install/setup choices? None Did you install the game within dosbox? No Inputs when you run the game? chq.exe The Command HQ program is located at C:\HQ\chq.exe Thanks Steve

Command HQ In Windows 7

I downloaded the latest version of DOSBOX .74. I am trying to play Command HQ in Windows 7. I mounted the HQ directory. I type chq.exe and when I press enter DOSBOX shuts down. This worked for me in Vista on my old computer. Can I get this to work on my new computer?
