I've got the original Dungeon Keeper game (not GOLD) CD somewhere in my stash I think. Torrents could be made avaialable maybe??

torrenting a copy righted product is illegal in most places, so maybe you shouldnt discuss it on these forums?

You are looking for two files named:
SOUND.DAT and SPEECH.DAT

They can be found by downloading a Dungeon Keeper (original) demo-- just unzip and copy those two files from the Sound folder of the demo game and past them into the sound folder for your "soundless" keeper gold directory.

If you did it right the sound folder will have 3 items:
A folder named "atlas" and the two you just put in there.

Enjoy.

Now if anyone can help me get past the Deeper dungeons wanting me to enter a CD I would be grateful.

Here is a link to the demo I got the files from.

Daemon tools works fine of course, but:
You can also use imgmount directly in dosbox at the command prompt. No need for an extra program.
Dosbox can perfectly mount CD images without extern programs.
Makes it easier to run demanding games for your PC.

The less programs are running on the background the smoothier the games run. It happens that some games will lag terribly when using daemon tools -(or other tools)- with dosbox.

example:
imgmount d x:\image.iso -t iso
Works also with cue/bin images.

if you have the original dungeon keeper disk

its best to rip them from there that way you dont MISS anything.

The Demos dont always have everything maybe some sounds like mistress's or something and may cause the game to crash.

If anything copy the sound directory from D:\KEEPER and it should work fine

you don't need dosbox for dungeon keeper gold. =) i play it as well. There are problems with music or sounds. On either one. It's sad, but doesn't really spoil gameplay unless it's sound, which i think is DK2

Dungeon Keeper is not really a dosgame.

More of a Windows game so yeah

Dungeon Keeper is originally a Dosgame that has a Windows version.
Both versions were on the full CD when it was released.

Most rips (the HotU one also) lack the dosversion.
