If you have made everything in the right way, now, starting DosBox it should appear the DOS screen (you know, just white words on a black screen :wub: )
So you have just to go to the directory in wich there is the game (cd directorywiththegame) and launch the executable file of the game (game.exe) Have you ever used the DOS?

No, because on the old DOS computers I used to use there was a program with a directory where you would hit say "H" for a certain program it was laid out very easy!

Code:
mount c C:\Gamedirectory C: Start  Commands like 'dir' also work, if you need to check the filename.

I would advise you drag and drop the game exe onto the dosbox exe.
It's much simpler than all this 'mount' business and always works a charm for me
