I'd like to wipe my Asus Eee PC netbook's hard drive after I back up my stuff, but I don't know how/where to find my DOSbox's hard drive and config file for backing up purposes - step-by-step guide, please?

Thanks in advance.

PS My netbook has Win XP.

What folder did you mount as C? That's where the games would be stored.
