when you load DosBox you see Z:\
you type "mount c c:\"
you now STILL see Z:\
you type "c:"
you now see C:\

simple enough?

This is normal, it's how it work. You'll always get Z:\ at startup and need to manually set your drives unless you play with the DOSBox configuration file.

ok and mind telling me how i do that :help:

Hang on a sec - did you put the entries in the dosbox.xonf file at the bottom after the section labelled [autoexec] ? otherwise it won't work. have you tried executing those same commands by typing them manually?

im still lost here...i typed this into the DOSBox.conf file

mount C C:\DOS\CDrive
mount D F:\ -t cdrom
C:
CLS

(my cd/dvd drive is F) i expect to see C:\> when i load DOSBox instead i get Z:\> so my question is how do i get it to say C:\> instead of Z. once i get C i can finish off the rest of the tutorial and play games.
