My Original Rayman CD used to work fine on Windows 98. Right now, I use Windows Vista. And I first get an error message that says 'Your system does not support fullscreen mode.' If I open the game in safe mode i am able to install but when i click on play i get another error message that says
'16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem (title)

X#=0D, CS=00C7 IP=00002028. The NTVDM CPU has encountered an unhandled exception. Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.'
Can someone please tell me how to solve this?

mount d x:\ -t cdrom

x:\ = your real CD drive letter under Windows.

Install the game from D: on C: in dosbox.

Yes, that's it.

After mounting your CD drive input:

d:
install


(I will assume that your virtual C: is auto mounted, you don't give many details ......)

[Edit]
Found an old post about the same:
Seems you need to input setup, not install... *sigh* ah my ol'memory .....*

It is very easy:
dosbox
-> mount d x:\ -t cdrom <enter>
-> mount c e:\games <enter>
-> d: <enter>
-> setup <enter>

full install(approx 43Mb) path choosen c:\rayman, sound:sb16/220/irq7/dma1

after install:
->c: <enter>
->cd rayman <enter>
->rayman <enter>

after restart dosbox:
-> mount d x:\ -t cdrom <enter>
-> mount c e:\games <enter>
-> c: <enter>
-> cd rayman <enter>
-> rayman <enter>
and here we go with the loose hands.....

:

Adapt the mount lines to match yours.
BTW, it's possible that you will need to create a BIN/CUE image to get sound working properly on Vista, use imgmount and point to the CUE file to mount the image as D: drive in dosbox.

If you still have troubles I will have to find my Rayman CD and reinstall the stuff to check some things out ......

I have a problem...
I'm using DOSbox to play the old Rayman game (CD-ROM), and it works perfectly! When I started the game for the first time I saved it, but now I want to play it again and there's no saved game!
What can I do?

For starters read and apply this:
Sticky: Dosbox 0.73 and Vista. [Howto]
Next:
As you can't write savegames on a CD you need to INSTALL the game on your virtual C: in dosbox.

After you have done what's in the first link, input:

mount d e:\ -t cdrom
d:
setup

full install(approx 43Mb) path choosen c:\rayman, sound:sb16/220/irq7/dma1

after install:
c:
cd rayman
rayman

after restart dosbox:
mount d e:\ -t cdrom
c:
cd rayman
rayman


I repeat:

Hi, I just downloaded this game, all of these are for how to install it on DOSBox from a CD, how do I do it from my computer?

Sorry if this is a lame question... I'm just not all that computer savvy, lol
