Hello. I'm having troubles installing Daggerfall TES

I'm using:
AMD Phenom 9600 Quad-Core
1.88 Ghz, 4.00 GB of Ram
ATI Radeon HD 3800 Series
Windows XP 64 Bit Edition
The Elder SCrolls 2: Daggerfall version unknown

I'm new with dosbox so that might explain a lot. I'm having problems with mounting. I have extracted the files from bethesda softworks to a folder. I have a list of instructions on how to install with dosbox. I try to mount the location where I have the files extracted to but it says it doesn't exist. I can clearly see the file folder and I have clearly typed the correct path to the folder. I have read the readme files and nothing helped from there.

There exist several Daggerfall threads in this forum. In a nutshell:

- Install Daggerfall (huge) according to Bethesda's instructions
- Edit the file z.cfg (in the Daggerfall folder) to point to your Daggerfall folder (lines "path" and "pathcd"),
- Start DOSBox, enter "mount c d:\dagger" or something similar (in particular, replace d:\dagger with your Daggerfall folder, and without quotes), and hit ENTER
- Then enter "c:" without quotes and hit ENTER
- Finally, enter "fall.exe z.cfg" without quotes and hit ENTER, which should start Daggerfall.

If this doesn't work, please describe (as detailed as I did it in this post, please), what you did and what you observed.
