I tried doing that, but it still doesn't work.* I'll just paste my Autoexec part of the configuration here, and hopefully you, or somebody else, could find the problem.

[autoexec]
# Lines in this will be run at startup.
Mount C C:\DosBox\CDrive
Mount D D:\ -t cdrom
C:
CLS

I also tried various things with the Mount D D:\ thing, like: C:\ and E:\ and neither worked.
Sorry to interrupt you guys, but I just would like to check something:

By any chance, have you created the folders C:\DosBox\CDrive and does D:\ exists (or has "something" inside, if it is your CDRom drive) at your computer before you run DOSBox?

Data, can you replace that line in DOSBox tutorial?

Replace:

Code:
Mount C C:\DosBox\CDrive
with

Code:
Mount C C:\Dos\CDrive
Just as Don Andy mentioned before. Almost all users who contacted me had this problem because tutorial is pointing to wrong directory.

This should fix gamebounty and Rooker's installations.

Thanks!

I could but I don't see that command.

I do see the
"First line tells DOSBox to mount C:\DOSBox\CDrive as C drive. In other words, when you start DOSBox, your C drive hard disk"

and the
"When new windows opens, find and select our DOS folder. Destination folder should say "C:\DOSBox\DOSBox-0.63" for DOSBox version 0.63. Click install."

Moving instead of closing because of spamming.

Data,
I've noticed that some people still are following old version of tutorial. I can't understand how is this possible. Someone created copy of old tutorial or PDF? :blink:

Strange....

Hello everybody !
I'm beginning with computers and I'de like to play Double Dragon 2.
So I've installed DosBox with the tutorial, step by step. But I've got a problem. (On the tutorial, the game is Flashback, so I tryed with).
I'm at this step :
"Now start DOSBox form the Start Menu, and at the command prompt type "dir".

You should now see FLASH folder is on our C drive in DOSBox."
But I don't have the same screen as in the tutorial :
I don't have this sentence :
NOTESO~1 TXT 413 byte (date of the day+hour)
and I have my "3 dir" but I don't have any file:
0 File(s) 0 Bytes.
3 Dir(s) 110,540,800 Bytes free.

I'm lost, nothing's workin' after that :blink: :blink:

May anybody help me ????? :help:
