If you mount c:\krynn\cok as virtual C then this

is completely wrong, as de facto
your path in dosbox is c:\save, NOT C:\krynn\cok\SAVE .....
My advise:
Create a
C:\oldgames\ whilst in windows, drag/drop your \krynn\cok\ in it so you get in
windows:
c:\oldgames\krynn\cok\
Now run dosbox and input:
mount c c:\oldgames
c:
cd krynn
cd cok
start
That should sort things out.
Remark: *
should* because in fact in Vista you would be better off using a \oldgames\ folder in your personal folders as virtual C: , if dosbox will be able to save your game will depend of the write permissions dosbox has on your C:\root ..... it certainly has the permissions in your personal folders.
