I'm a real novice. So bare with me..!
I can't even mount. When i try to write: mount C C:/CM2 it says
Directory C doesn't exist! But it EXISTS!! What can I do? And why does this happen??

1. You need to use '\' (back-slahs), not '/' (forward-slash).
2. C:\CM2 needs to exists when you view it in Windows.

Thats not the problem. I do write it that way you see: \
I try this: MOUNT C C: & MOUNT C C:\CM2
It says: Directory C doesn't exist
Whats up with that??
Try:
MOUNT C C:\
It needs the slash at the end.
Same result..: Directory C doesn't exist
That error message appear when you type this?
C:
If so, what kind of computer do you use? And more importantly, what kind of OS do you use? MacOS?
Yeah, it must be Mac or Linux. There are some other threads on this forum where people have asked how to mount drives on those OSes, so you might try searching/browsing the forum.
I've got a Dell Latitude D500 with windows xp professional and service pack 2.
Check that your using at least DosBox v0.63.
Double-Click on My Computer and tell us what drive letters/partitions you have. Can you access your C: through My Computer?
VALID
MOUNT C C:\
MOUNT C C:/
INVALID
MOUNT C C:
This will not work because your telling DosBox to mount a directory called C:. There is not a directory C:. C: is a DRIVE not a directory.
I'm using DosBox v0.63. When i double click on my computer: C: , D: and E: (cd-rom). I tried mount c c too, but it says the usual thing: Directory C doesn't exist. What is this !?!?

Do as DosFreak suggests. It seems your forgot the ending backslash and IT'S NEEDED.
mount c c:\
Intel i7 5960X
Gigabye GA-X99-Gaming 5
8 GB DDR4 (2100)
8 GB GeForce GTX 1070 G1 Gaming (Gigabyte)
Thanks so much!! It suddenly worked!! But now my problem is that the game I was going to play (championship manager 2) didnt work. When i type cm2.exe it says: Can not find *LASERLOK* cd_rom in any drive.
Anybody who knows what that means??
Q: My CD-ROM doesn't work.
A: To mount your cdrom in DOSBox you have to specify some additional options
when mounting the cdrom.
To enable the most basic cdrom support:
- mount d f:\ -t cdrom
To enable low-level SDL-support:
- mount d f:\ -t cdrom -usecd 0
To enable low-level ioctl-support(win2k/xp/linux):
- mount d f:\ -t cdrom -usecd 0 -ioctl
To enable low-level aspi-support (win98 with aspi-layer installed):
- mount d f:\ -t cdrom -usecd 0 -apsi
In the commands: - d driveletter you in DOSBox
- f:\ location of cdrom on your PC.
- 0 The number of the cdrom drive, reported by mount -cd
See also the question: The game/application can't find its CD-ROM.
is what the readme says
That didn't work..
That didn't work.. I read somewhere on the web that I maybe need a NOCD crack for the game or something.. Anybody who knows something about that??
No cracks here!
