Am trying to install xcom apocalypse. CD drive is F.
Mount f: d:\ -t cdrom mounts my D: (hard drive)
Switching drive letters give sme MSCDEX: failure: drive-letter of multiplr cddrom-drives have to be continuous.
How can I mount f: so I can install apocalypse?
try mounting this way instead
mount f d:\ -t cdrom
I have no clue how this game works 😕 , so I can't tell whether mounting a HD as a cdrom drive makes sense.
You understand that
mount f d:\ -t cdrom
means nothing but:
please, mount my cdrom drive (called D) as F as far as dosbox is concerned.

If your physical CD drive is F: and you want to mount it DOSBox as D: the mount command would be:
mount d f:\ -t cdrom
The non-contiguous error means that there should be no empty drive letters between the CD_ROM and the mounted hard drive, i.e. hard drive C: and CD D:
Read my 60 Seconds Guide to DOSBox (and don't just read it - follow it too).
If that doesn't help, come back with details on how you mounted your C and D drives, how you did the install, how you configured sound, music etc.
Reading the aptly named README file will be a good idea too.

If the CD drive is F and you want to mount as D reverse the letters.
Mount D F:\ -t cdrom
Otherwise you're saying to mount D, a hard drive, as F.

Did you do this after trying it the other way first. The error seems to think you're mounting a second CD drive.
