Fast Attack

TO RUN: This assumes you have made an image of your original disk, and mounted it! Use whatever drive letter you have mounted your FA image on - mine was "m". So running it is a little more complex than some dos games.

A bat file that only mounts your directory above the Fast Attack installation should work just fine. Here are the contents of my bat file:

dosbox.exe C:\mydosbox fast.exe -c "MOUNT m m:\ -t cdrom" -fullscreen

From the resulting dosbox "c:" prompt:

cd sierra\fast
fast

You would alter the path for your own install and directories. Mine is "mydosbox\Sierra\fast" Note that this bat fails to execute the fast.exe command for reasons unknown to me. The bat file is in the dosbox main directory, wherever you installed it. So you would manually launch from your prompt.
