Hi,

I've downloaded GOG's Theme hospital and also DOSbox turbo for my android galaxy note 2.

When I try to load up theme hospital I get an error message from the game "theme hospital requires a CDROM to play!" (see image)

I have tried mounting the folder, but it tells me the directory doesn't exist. (see image)

I have tried editing the hospital.cfg file line of code: INSTALL_PATH=c:\ to INSTALL_PATH=c:\dos, but I got the same error message. (this came up in a different thread)

I am new to DOSbox, and new to DOS - can anyone help me out with specific instructions? I may have made a mistake with my "code", I am not entirely sure whether to use / or \ half the time either.

As a note to other newbies trying to play theme hospital on their android, I had also tried the free software aDOSbox, but I encountered an error regarding ram allocation. I saw that this was very complicated and difficult to solve with aDOSbox, but relatively easy to solve with DOSbox turbo. However, it seems that getting theme hospital to work on DOSbox turbo isn't straight forward either.

Thanks in advance for any help offered. I really appreciate it. I've invested a lot of time and effort on this already.

Solution:
Set the ram/memory to 16mg
unmount the current c drive so that you can mount a new one (theme hospital must be mounted on c):
mount -u c

then type:
mount c /storage/sdcard0/dos/theme (must be the full ANDROID directory leading to the game folder - try to eliminate capitals and spaces and keep folder names short - here I have renamed the folder "Theme Hospital" to theme)

c:
cls
hospital.exe

To make this process faster this can be automated by the dosbox manager by typing in the text into the auto ex bat file field:
mount c /storage/sdcard0/dos/theme
c:
cls
hospital.exe
You can also add the settings related to ram, music, scale, controls etc.

I contacted tech support for DosBox Turbo and over a number of emails they helped me reach this solution. Previous problems mounting had been caused by capitals and not using the full android address. Mounting as c drive (though not as a cdrom) fixes the cd rom required error.
