I'm running Win XP and have successfully copied over Moo2 to my hard drive, allowing me to open it without the cd.
Unfortunately, when I try to set up DosBox, my computer crashes with I open up Install.exe.
Any ideas?
Problem with DosBox

Thanks for the reply, first of all.
I've successfully gotten 1.40 installed on both computers I'm testing on. I'm able to get DosBox to open up on both, and have one create a game and the other join.
However, even though I have the dosbox.conf file edited like the guide, the game name doesn't pop up for the person joining. I believe I have all the network settings correct (disabled TCP/IP, enabled NWLink Bios and NWLink IPX). I'm behind a router and firewall, and I've disabled the firewall.
If I watch the boot up on the 'hosting' computer, it says there is something about an IPX tunnelling error. Anyone know what I could be doing wrong?
I think I'm close. Any help would be much appreciated. I'm sorta bad at this kind of thing -- as I'm sure you can tell.

First,
In case you wanna play in a local network, I assume you have just used the wrong IP, mebbe?! External IP which shows up by using the site whatismyip.com etc. won't work, just take the local ip of the host. This should work.
you shouldn't do that. IPX is just emulated by DOSBox.(disabled TCP/IP, enabled NWLink Bios and NWLink IPX).
