Adventure Forums - View Single Post - how do I run Discworld Noir with DOSbox on Windows 7?

I'm going mental. I've tried all the different things people claim to have made this game work for them and none of them are working for me. And, as you've probably guessed, having resorted to coming here, none of them have worked for me.

I have tried running with every compatibility mode, I've tried every possible combination of options on that tab.

I downloaded the 'tin3_dxd' fix but it didn't do anything for me.

The only option I have left if using DOSbox as another forum suggested. But that poses another problem; I am a complete n00b when it comes to DOS commands.

I don't know what I'm supposed to type in order to use it to launch the game.

If it makes a difference I have the 'RePlay Adventure' 3 disk distribution of the game. I have it installed to C : \ DiscNoir and my DvDRom is my D : \ drive. And I have windows 7. (Spaces in directory locations because I forgot to disabled emots)

If anybody can tell me what I'm supposed to be typing to make this work I'll be eternally grateful.
