Que here;
My Question is that I followed the directions for dosbox to work and it gives me nothing? This is what I get.
Z:\mount c c:\old games\your game exe.
Z:\old games does not exist.
The funny part is all are in the same directory? I am trying to run C&C95.exe
of old or Total Annihilation. What am I doing wrong guys assistance would help. I am from the dos days but darkened by xp 🤣.
Que
mount c "C:\old games"
You can't mount executables. You can only mount folders.
Finally DOSBox can only play DOS games so the only C&C you can play is the DOS ver of C&C not C&C 95.
Total Annihilation is also a Windows game.
Thx dosfreek;
Lets never mind about dos games I would like the dosbox just to see C:\
Z:\mount c c:\dosbox should see it right. Or am I still doing it wrong.

Use the REPLY button please!
"Z:\mount c c:\dosbox should see it right. Or am I still doing it wrong."
1) when you mount a directory the directory must exist (e.g. c:\dosbox must exist outside of dosbox)
2) in order to see c:\> you have to switch to it first by typing c: and hitting enter

OK this is what I type and what I get....Z:\>mount c c:\dosbox
Directory c:\dosbox doesn't exist.
Z:\>
Now what is wrong and how should it be written. On my computer dosbox is in C:\ not Program Files etc.
Que
Use Windows Explorer to make a directory like C:\DOS first, then use DOSBox and type "mount C C:\DOS"
I am now frustrated like the avatar 🤣 😀
Que
This is what I type and what I get...Z:\>mount c c:\DOS
Drive c is mounted as local directory c:\DOS\
Z:\>
Now what, sorry guys.
Que
then dosbox is nothing for you. It can't run TA and I doubt that you have the DOS version of C&C
Water flows down the stream
How to ask questions the smart way!
Thanks Qbix;
Like I was trying just to get dosbox c:\ never mind the games.
Que
I have alot of files in win 95 & 98 and even the sound blaster 16 disk. It just finding them to upload.
Que
[post removed, mount subdirectories of local disks nothing else]
I will more than likely go to plan "B" and make a win 96-98 computer since I have the hardware and files. I just have to dig the dust off the parts and files 🤣.

Yes, do that. Better get something with a lot of windows and graphics, because you apparently can not read:
