Hi DosBox experts,

I have just installed DosBox on my 86 laptop running Windows 7 Home edition (Spanish version)

I have tried to mount the Drive C but it just will not create it.

Copied from DosBox:

Z:\>MOUNT Current mounted drives are: Drive Z is mounted as Internal Virtual Drive […]
Show full quote
Z:\>MOUNT
Current mounted drives are:
Drive Z is mounted as Internal Virtual Drive

Z:\>MOUNT C C:\DOSPROGS
Directory C:\DOSPROGS doesn't exist

Any suggestions?
Thanks

I guess you don't have the real folder c:/dosprogs. Or you are misunderstanding how mounting is supposed to work.

Mount c c:/dosprogs means that dosbox will use the REAL folder dosprogs on your harddrive c: to emulate dosbox' c: drive in there.
So you need to have a REAL folder called dosprogs on c:/
