OK if you copy it to the hard drive you don't need to do the mount d d
thing.

You just need to:

mount c c:/
c:
cd war2
setup
------That'll run setup then
war2

It's normal it won't show up in Add/Remove programs, as far as Windows knows
its just a group of files on the hard drive. :)

Using DOSBox 0.65 instead of 0.63 shouldn't (in theory) make any difference.

The contents of the WarCraft CD should all be in a folder called war2 on the
C: drive.
