You should say what version of hack you are using and where. I will assume
you are using some version of PC-HACK, probably its 1.03. If this is the
case the problem is likely in your HACK103.CNF file. It probably contains
a line "RAMDISK=d:", and you don't have a ramdisk in d:. The solution is
to delete this line. By the way, also delete the line
"LEVELS=c:\games\hack" if that exists. Everything should then work. Even
if this isn't applicable in your case, somebody else will probably find
it useful. 
I think that the author should have provided a more descriptive error
message like "Ramdisk not found".
