I mounted my cd rom, and when i us the command "cd f:\" where f:\ is the mounted drive path i chose, the command line wont switch to the directory f:\. I know i typed it in right because i dident get an error message. i know it recognizes the mounted drive because when i typed dir f:\, the normal directory info came up with my game on it.
Just type F: to switch drives - no CD or \
After changing current drive as HunterZ suggested you can use cd to change among directories.

🤣 i see thanks it shows the games directors hehe i didn;t even think to try that 🤣
So many people get confused by that one... I think maybe DOSBox ought to come with an install wizard that helps newbies set up their mounts so that DOSBox's prompt will default to the drive & directory that they expect it to.

There are frontends...

...Which is why I also proposed the idea of bundling external or internal frontends with official DOSBox releases 😀

You can start by posting a new thread in the Windows forum instead of in the middle of a totally unrelated thread...

You are in COMPLETELY wrong place. DM Java has nothing to do with DOSBOX or DOS at all. Do not do this again!
