Found it. Downloaded it. Now it wants me to mount c drive. How do I tell it I'm a chick and can't mount a damn thing?!

Whatever I'm doing I'm doing it wrong I get as far as successfully (who knew? :supp: ) mounting c drive to C:\SIMCITY but after that I'm screwing up somehow. Seems no matter what I type I get illegal file name error message. I just wanna play a favorite old game.
After mounting C and changing to the c drive, type dir to see the list of files and look for a .bat file, For the version of Sim City that I have it was sim256.bat so I had to type sim256 to start it up
The file path is c:\SIMCITY\SIMCITYW\SWC.EXE so what am I supposed to do with this screen now?
It looks like that is the Windows (not Dos) version of Simcity which probably won't run under Dosbox. I think I have that version as well, let me install it and see if I can get it to work.

Just two minutes before you posted I skeptically double clicked the shortcut to SIMCITY icon and it worked without using dosbox.However I still can't get Brix to work, lol, figures. Thank-you for helping me so much lately 572Daytona.
Your patience and tolerance amaze me! I don't mean to be such a pain in the ass I really don't.
I GOT IT TO WORK!! I have BRIX!!! Yay!!!
Congrats! I've never played Brix, it looks like something on the idea of Tetris which I was never that good at. I got Sims2 for my daughter last week and it looks like I'm going to have to upgrade her computer to run it, the upgrades never end.
