Hello,

just tried to make dosbox run for the first time. Using v 0.72 and tried mounting c under two PCs - one with XP SP2, one running Vista.

Typed mount c c:\dosprog\ like it is described in the help.

Always get the message "Directory doesn´t exist", mounting fails.

What am I doing wrong?

The folder that you are trying to mount a folder that does not exist. YOU have to create it. Mount the folder where you have the game, not a nonexistent one.

Do you have a "C:\DOSPROG" directory on your hard drive? if not then you cannot mount it.
