DOS3.3 LAUNCHER



 
     I am having problems with DOS3.3 Launcher---is anyone else?????????
 
 I have a ROM 1 Apple ][GS with 5.25 MEG of RAM (when I bought my computer
 it had 1.25 MEGS and then I  added a CV Tech. 4 MEG board) I have a 3.5
 drive and a 5.25 drive and and Q Drive 100 MEG Hard Drive.  HOPEFULLY that
 is enough information about my computer that you will be able to help
me!!!
 
   I have had my computer 3.5 years but in some ways, sometimes I feel
 like a 2 day novice!!    Here goes:
 
        In your directions you state:   create a directory called DOS3.3 in
 eectory of your hard disk.   What is a directory? Is it a folder?
 as I said, a novice.
 
        Also, I am having problems---
    I copied Wheel of Fortune from MY copied disk(so, yes it can be copied)
 it is a 2 disk game---front & back of one 5.25 disk--->
        I tried test launching it-- it goes to the title page and says---
 
     PLEASE REINSERT THE GAME DISK WITH LABEL SIDE DOWN AND HIT ANY KEY
 
 First, I just hit any key-the music started over, but nothing else
happened.
 Second I went to control panel selected 2nd disk from your CDA went back
 into the program(via pressing Quit from CDA menu) and tried pressing any
 key again-the music started over but nothing else happened.  So I gave up
 went to the CDA menu, selected DOS3.3 Launcher and selected from there-
 go to launching application.   I press the arrow for it to say YES and
then
 go back to CDA "main menu"  select quit and it says the usual ProDOS
 message at top of page then I get a white menu bar at the top of the page
 and the rest of the page is "desktop blue" and I get a ----
 
     Unknown Error
            FBD5
 
                       continue
 
 I press return and  the computer then locks up --- although I don't have
 to turn the computer off --- open apple/control/reset does restart it.
 
 I have tried starting the game from the finder but the same thing happened
 
   I sure hope you can help me!!!
