Yeah, I did get it working, thank you. The trouble was finding the w7 download somewhere that didn't feel like a virus planting site... I ended up getting it from bestoldgames.net
Tried a virtual drive for Gold (so I could play from CD), but had .dll problems, so W7 it is.
Well, there is a tread on this forum entitled (11 years old ?) :"Instructions how to setup the Wizardry Gold in DOSBOX"
and it is still available :
http://www.softwarespecialties.com/dcforum/DCForumID6/1158.html
It is supposed to give instruction how to setup a copy of Win 3.1 running in DosBox, which can then run WizGold. Never tried it, considering WizGold an inferior product (versus W7 for DOS).
Still, it is worth mentioning as a curiosity and it is another example how people cared of this game.
