This will tell the program to mount your C drive. If c isn't your main drive you can use a different one.

This, similarly, will tell the program to mount your D drive as a cdrom drive. If d isnt' your cdrom drive letter, use whichever yours is.

From there, use normal DOS commands. For example, to get into your Sierra directory, you will most likely type the following in order, assuming you installed to the default directories:

c: [this will switch to the C drive]
cd sierra [this will change directory--hence cd--to csierra]
cd kq6cd [this will change directory to csierra\kq6cd]

Then you can just type "kq6cd" (without the quotes) to run the game, but I encountered memory problems at this point, which is what I'm currently trying to solve.

Also, bear in mind that if you don't have the CD version, it won't install to "kq6cd", obviously it will install somewhere else. Simply substitute the name of your directory and it should work.
kool, thanks, i'll check it out
