Just got this at Vons for 2 dolla! I got it running on dosbox,
but right when it's on dos box showin' the intro ("Origin games copyright" etc. etc."). Then it says "Cannot find game CD" in Dos Box. :( So, can someone help me?

What'd you do to get it running? I assume you've got the CD mounted (preferably as D:\)?

Also make sure you don't mount the CD as a hard drive, but as an actual CD:
mount e e:\ -t cdrom -usecd 0 -ioctl
This fixed most problems with game CD checks I've seen in DOSbox. (
http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php?page=Internal+Programs%2FMount) Here's a more detailed description of the mount options - you may want to use mount -cd first to find out which number to use with the -usecd parameter; 0 should just be the first CD drive in your machine though.

Thanks it works now.

He will wake up eventually... then you have to kick or punch the robotic nurse enough times until it gets thrown against the electric fence on the door, otherwise it will put you back to sleep.

One of my favorite games. :)
Hopefully a remake of it will emerge at some point so it plays on a modern OS again. (Much like how (

Hopefully you aren't experiencing the same problem as me. It's a bug and he won't get up ever. It happens to alot of people and there is no work around unless you get a different computer (but it could be screwy on there too).
I have my fingers crossed that when a new version of Dosbox is released that maybe this will be fixed.

I thought you just had to press a key and he'd wake up? Keypad keys or something?

I got far, I'm at the drop ship part. I am heavily wounded so I have to tap shift. But, every time I try to go to the elevator the second drop ship kills me. (I killed the first)
Ah yes, beating Doc Blue is fun, especially with his own arm.

There's another show stopper in the second area. Ive been trying to get past if for the better part of decade. I've tried the game on a bunch of machines over the years, various configurations and options, it will not work. Just enough of the story unfolds to be drawn in, then the damned thing bugs.
