Why won Discworld II (Win 95) run if I install it to a drive other than C?

A. The Windows installation program on early versions of Discworld II set a system ‘registry key’ to ‘C’ regardless of the drive it installed to. To correct this you need to change the registry key to point to the drive you did install Discworld II on (see below). Or you can simply run the patch program to correct it automatically. – Run ‘regedit’ from the ‘Start’ menu, ‘Run’ option.
