Hi,

I've downloaded DosBox to run the games on my Windows XP which seems to be working fine. Only thing is everytime I start DosBox up I have to always put in the mount c etc....

Is there a way to save the settings so it remembers my C:\ and I don't
have to always input that info??

Thanks in advance!

Add the following to the end of your dosbox.conf file (under where it says "[autoexec]"):

MOUNT C C:\

Whatever you put after [autoexec] will run automatically whenever you start DOSBox. If you have other drives you can do the same for those drives, ex MOUNT D:\ etc :) This is really something that should be built-in to the next version of DOSBox: auto-assigning drive letters to match Windows ...
