In what directory do you keep your DOS games? The best idea is to point Dosbox there.
Ex, if I want to mount directory "Dosgames" that is placed on partition labeled F as Dosbox' emulated drive C, I'd do the following: mount C F:\Dosgames Unless you prefer sticking to the tutorial, in which case you have to create a directory named "DOS" on your drive C and then inside that directory another, named "CDrive". |

You mean you unpack your DOS games directly to your drive C: ?
Or do you have a dedicated subdirectory for them ? If it's the first, then I strongly suggest you change that habit. When your games are in a single directory (which is not your drive C, it's far easier to manage and run them in DosBox. Once you have made a directory to put your games in, move the appropriate games there. In DosBox: mount C C:\[the name of your games directory] |
