I'm having a slight problem playing WoX on XP. I've installed it with no trouble. I installed in my DosBox directory C:/DOS/CDRIVE.
If I try to play the game the normal way (clicking the icon), I only get a black screen in "Windows prompt" mode, but if I try to play it through DosBox, DB says I must insert the CD-rom wich I of course have already done.
Can anyone help?

EDIT: DosBox says I have a music CD loaded http://forums.ubi.com/images/smilies/blink.gif<div class="ev_tpc_signature">

Finally got it to work, but it freezes in the intro when I see a spaceship formed like a dragon http://forums.ubi.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_frown.gif<div class="ev_tpc_signature">
