Let me google that for you

Hahahahahaha! XD

That is a message that you get if you try to run the binary outside win32 environment. You don't need to run it in any mode xD.

DOS means a very old operating sysytem on PCs. Open up a command prompt and that is DOS pretty much, all console and no windows. You don't want that.

Geeks WILL find this question funny but that is because they are geeks. I have to admit i LOLed :P

Well...

if you need to ask is because you won't understand anyway, so just keep closed your hex editor...

Ok, I'm kidding...

As chumpy said, DOS mode is an old OS (Disk Operational System) that was dead a little after dinos. Believe us when we say: you really won't wanna this.

That or you're dealing with a fried binary.

As much as I respect your work, but you shouldn't get snot-nosed. We all asked ourselves the same question, at some point


Slightly off topic (and slightly cheesy):

Spoiler:

TADA! Cabal in DOS Mode:

Don't misunderstand me... as I said: "I'm kidding"...


but you are right, we were all noobs at some time in our lives, so let me explain more "geekly"

so...

@jimmycollin

In the beginning we had a bit... ops I mean... 1 bit... or 0 bit humm I'm confused now...

Ok, Kidding again...

That message, my dear padawan, mean you can not run cabalmain in MS-DOS mode. Since MS-DOS is a 16-bit Operational System and uses instructions that are 16 bits long.

In resume we have:

16-bit OS uses instructions that are 16 bits long (Like MS-DOS)
32-bit OS uses instructions that are 32 bits long (Like any flavor of Windows32)
64-bit OS uses instructions that are 64 bits long (Like any flavor of Windows64)

so you can run an 16bits application on a 32 or 64bit OS, but you can not run a 64bit application on a 32 or 16bit OS because the instructions "doesn't fit"

It's a little rudimentary explanation but I think it's enough

You cant run such a exe like that in DOS.
You can run console made programs in C++ in DOS, for example. Dunno if you can run .Net colose program in DOS.
