1. Did you mounted target disk as described? I.e. mount c c:\ -freesize 800 2. Do you installing your game on this mounted disk?  It is not Daggerfall installation CD/directory from what you installing it. 3. Go to C: (typing C: in command prompt must be enough) and made space check with dir command. It must say how much free space do you have. |

How much space did you allocate? 800 should actually be enough for Daggerfall, but try allocating 1200 MB. Also be sure to use the -freesize xx option before you mount any drives, automatically or manually, because if you use it after mounting, it won't have any effect on the already mounted drive. Though I've got myself no experience with frontends, I had heard here and there that some games have problems if a frontend for DosBox is used. Might be worth trying DosBox without frontend, even if you're not used to the Dos commands. It's not that hard to get into it, here're enough threads with would be helpful there. |

| The Fifth Horseman | Make sure that D-Fend isn't mounting that drive earlier on. Repeated mount commands have no effect. | |

I've typed in just as you suggested, and yet the installation program for Daggerfall claims there's not enough space for the huge option. |

I think you just need to select Edit Configuration in start menu and put the following line in the dosbox-x.xx.conf file, at the very bottom below the [autoexec] line: mount x x:\ -freesize xx Where x is the harddrive you're mounting and the letter you want to assign in DosBox for it (example - mount c c:\), and xx is the amount in MB you want to assign to be available for games (example - mount c c:\ -freesize 800). Should probably work with frontends, too. That option will work each time you start DosBox, so you won't need to change it every time. |

| karekristensson | Oh grud, I forgot to mention that I'm using D-Fend-Reloaded for installing and playing the games, as I'm still not used to the Dos interface. XP | |

| The Fifth Horseman | It's not that there is not enough, it's that there is too much. When mounting your DOSBox C, use the -freesize option followed by a number in megabytes to set the amount of space DOSBox should report to the games, eg -freesize 700 | |
