There are two ways to get DPMI which is a DOS extension to run programs
that are larger than DOS usually allows.

1.) Run the game in a Windows DOS box. Any Windows from 3.1 on should
do. No special configuration is necessary as far as I remember.

2.) Get "CWSDPMI.EXE". It's a very common thing on the web and it is
also included in many commercial DOS programs from the 1993 to 1996 time
period. Run it before you start the game. Sometimes it is enough to put
it into some directory that is in your PATH (like C:\DOS) and the game
will automatically load it when you run the game.

By the way... I still got this 14MB text adventure collection that you
couldn't get dowloaded from my web site. Mail me with your postal
address and I will send a burned CD-ROM to you - provided your DOS PC
has a CD-ROM drive this is the easiest way I think.
