The command to run the game is pac. Type
pac at the dos prompt once you are in the
correct directory. The command you used
above (cd) is to change directory. Then you
need to type pac to run it.

Wow, scary, people who don't know how to
use God's gift to computers: DOS. :)

If Booting up in Msdos mode, its not necessary, if do, the install installs long file named folders, not supported in Ms-dos,
however you shouldn't have a problem running
The new Pacwar via the installed desktop shortcut, from in a Dos box while still running win.

Noise? What Noise? It's sooooo quiet and Peaceful!
