DOS Games Discussion

[pipeline109]

I love DOS as to most of my friends, so I was ecstatic when I heard about a browser for DOS that wasn't made by M$. Therefore I tried to install it on a machine running Windows 98. But when I try to install it, it says "ERROR: not enough memory... please try typing C:\ARACHNECONTINUE.BAT at the command line." Turns out arachnecontinue.bat doesn't exist but arachnec.bat does. So I type that in and, even though it shows up when I type <dir>, I get "bad command or file name." Then it gets weird: I try to run the file from Windows and i get a window that says "program too big to fit in memory bad command or file name". First of all, how the heck can I get a "bad command or file name" AFTER the program shows up in Windows and tried to run? Also, The System icon in Control Panel says I have 64MB RAM so I don't believe that "not enough memory" bit. What the heck is going on?
