Installation Help: Sorcerian PC 1989

[Justin]

Hey guys, I'm wondering if you could offer some incite to install issues I'm having.

I've come across an abandonware version of Sorcerian PC. Its the English Sierra version, with all floppy disk information contained in one folder. When trying to install the game, I'm given a series of illegal errors. At first, I thought this was an issue with the games age, so I installed DOSBOX. I was able to get to the same point in the installation process, yet I'm given another illegal error. Seems the game thinks I'm without HD space, and it won't install.

Hey... if I format a USB memory stick to use FAT, perhaps I could install the game there?

I got it!!!

The game was trying to install itself, but its already "installed" once you unzip the game. All I needed to do was run Sierra.exe, which is something I forgot most companies always did for the actual game executable.
