I am trying to use dosbox to auto mount an iso but I keep gettingt the error "the image must be on a host or local drive." I have auto mounted image files before and they worked just fine. In case you need to know I am trying to auto lauch Leisure Suit Larry 7. I will post my autoexec lines below. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

1[autoexec]
2mount C "h:\dosgames\isos
3imgmount e "h:\DOSGames\isos\larry7.iso -t iso

If the above is exactly how you have it in your conf file then you need to add a " after "isos" and ".iso".

Quotes aren't needed at all if there are no spaces in the path.
