"Wizardy 7 and DosBox (redux)"
I managed to get this game to play using DosBox ages ago. Now I cant seem to remember how I did it. I've been trying for the last 2 days and no luck. The error I keep getting is "unable to load scenerio.hdr".

Can someone give me a complete "walk through" on how to install and run this please? I really want to play again Depressed Angry

I have the CD version (not gold).

Thank you

2 days later....

Played around with it a bit more and now I"m getting a different error... "unable to load system headers".

Any clue what that means and what might be wrong?

Personally, I just play the Wiz Gold version to avoid all dealings with DOSBOX... just a suggestion.

Did you try the links found in the "Wiz7 and DOSBOX" announcement () in lobby?

I find it easier these days to setup Windows XP inside a VirtualBox (opensource virtual PC, runs on Windows Vista/7, Linux & BSD Unix)
