Title: Dosbox 0.74 Post by: catsrcool on May 26, 2014, 12:35:56 PM I trying to run fractint on windows 8.1 using dos box.
every time I try to mount a drive it says the directory does not exit. I am tearing my hair out. The boot drive is 2 128gb SSD's in Raid 0 and I have another disk which is 1TB. Where should I put the fractint.exe file and how exactly do I get dosbox to run it?

In this I put any program I wish to use.
To mount a drive as the root of C within dosbox, the command is therefore: Code: mount c d:\dosbox This command tells dosbox that the folder d:\dosbox contains the root c: drive.

At the very end of the file, there's a section containing auto-exec commands, like a batch file, that will run every time you run DOSBox. That's where I put my mount command. I have my DOS folder on the C drive, thus my mount command needs different code than Simon's. Code: [autoexec] Ryan |
