The Hound of the Baskervilles IBM-PC CD-ROM Version

This game was designed for DOS and will run best on that version.  It should also work on Win95/98 systems.  This game does run on WinXP. 

Installation:

Extract houndbas.zip with your favorite unarchiver.  

-These instructions assume that the game is located at c:\houndbas and you are in Windows.  So....

1.  After extracting move the \houndbas folder to c:\
2.  Open a DOS box / Command Prompt
3.  Type in:  subst z: c:\houndbas <press enter> 
4.  Close the DOS box / Command Prompt
5.  You should now see a Drive Z in explorer
6.  Go to drive Z
7.  DblClick on Install.exe and follow the prompts.
8.  Choose Drive Z as the CD drive and Drive C as the installed to drive.  Choose C: for the location of hound.bat  (These should be the defaults, so just hit "enter" if they are).
  
Playing the Game:

DblClick on c:\hound.bat and the game should start.

Note: You will need to redo steps 2-4 after every reboot to play.

Misc:

See the games readme.txt file for keyboard commands.

To exit the game you will need to hit Ctrl-Esc and then shut down the taskbar icon Manually. 

If you are using a "tweak" utility (or a DOS lastdrive= cmd) that hides drive letters you may need to turn that off.  The Z above is just an example, you can use any drive letter that is not assigned to an actual physical drive.
