Lots of people seem to get a 'ERROR: Looks like you have inserted the wrong CD. Please insert your Daggerfall CD in your CD rom and try again.' I'm not sure what the cause of it is, seem to happen to people on both Windows and OSX. I would like to know what these people type wrong, if they type anything wrong or if DOSBox is to blame, but that seems unlikely since it works for so many others. It is possible to bypass the disc check though, which was also needed to get Daggerfall to run on older versions of DOSBox, but that's not really solving the issue. Just walking around it.

Hey y'all, After watching the Daggerfall Random PC Game video, I'm sure a lot of people will want to try out the game for themselves. Bethesda offer the game completely for free at, but you probably already know that. It's easy enough to start up, but if you're running on a modern OS and your experience was anything like mine, you'll notice that the game is missing sound effects or music, skips cinematics, and generally runs a little sluggish. I'm sure somebody a little more patient and experienced than myself with DosBOX could tweak all the settings to get it running perfectly, but why bother? Praise Akatosh, this site is amazing!

They've packaged Daggerfall along with a few mods and unofficial user-made patches into a nice and tidy, Windows 7 read y setup file. For the purists, all that extra stuff is optional. The key here is just that it works flawlessly on Windows 7. The website's completely in French, but it's fairly easy to get around regardless of your knowledge of the language (and a simple Google translate will definitely get you by). Visual Basic 2010 Mediafire.
