Loading Games onto DosBox

Solution 1:

You need to mount the game's folder in DosBox.

From the DOSBox Wiki:

Z:>MOUNT C C:\OLDGAMES
Drive C mounted as local directory C:\OLDGAMES\

• MOUNT: Tells the program to mount a directory
• C: Tells the program what you want your new drive to be called (leaving it as C is fine)
• C:\OLDGAMES: This is the directory with your game that you want to set as the new drive for DOSBox.

From there just change to the drive you mounted, and run the game.

Solution 2:

Give this a try:

1. Open DOSBox and type the following command at the prompt:

   mount c c:\yourgamedirectory
   

(Replace c:\yourgamedirectory with the path to the directory where the game you wish to run is located on your hard drive.)

2. Type c: at the prompt and hit Enter after the drive has been successfully mounted to access the game's directory.

3. Type the name of the executable file at the prompt and hit Enter to run the game.

Solution 3:

You need to run exe inside of DosBox, not just click in Windows. May be better use one of GUI Frontends for DosBox (http://www.dosbox.com/download.php?main=1)?
