So I started KQVII in DOSBox. Ive downloaded all the patches. But when I type in sierra to start the game, it goes into a weird cartoon that never ends. Just a continuous loop. I click the mouse, but there is no pointer. Any suggestions will be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks!

Is it on CD or floppies? If CD, check for any smudges or scratches.

You are starting the game from the shortcuts made by the new installer, aren't you?

Run the diagnostic tool in the game's directory and attach the results here.
