it seemes to me that the command line wont work....i go to run then type in command
none of the commands that i put in work...
for example, i will input "cd" (w/o quotes) and the command line will say that it is an invalid directory or command
...this occurs with all of my commands except C:, however that doesn't seem to do anything bcuz i cant put any other commands in

also, the files autoexec.bat and emm386.exe will not open for more than 1ns (approx, exageration, but it is a very very very very short time)
this is the only thisg which this does this

I am trying to install arena, an old elderscrolls game but I cannot get past any of the commands needed to start the game as they are all invalid or not recognized as a command
can some one please help me with this.....also a guide to starting arena would be helpful, but not nescessary (ps. i already tried the setup guide that comes with the downloaded game, however i get stuck at step 5, which is the first command code)
please help!!!

a) Read README/newbie guide in DOSBOX Guides...
b)Write precisely what you did (mounting, commands)...
The command CD without anything is nonsense (it needs an existing directory).
And what 's the nosense with autoexec.bat and emm386.exe? There are not these files in DOSBOX.
