??????????????????????????
You have games in F:\program files\classic games and you are mounting f:\dosprog ! Why? You must mount your directory with games...

I also recommend you to use DOS compatible names in paths (8 characters name + 3 characters extension, no spaces). It does not matter in mounting, but you cannot use long names inside DOSBOx (to be precise: they are mangled to fit the DOS naming rules).
