* input krondor.exe
So do I type "input krondor.exe" or what? :embarassed:

So, to summarize. I've typed in "intro", mounted the directory, found all the games and files etc. Now, how do I actually start the game after finding the directory and all that??????????????

but you need to go into the krondor directory before.. you don't go out on street and start yelling "1 presso with milk", first you have to walk into starbucks

it's done with cd command, which means "change directory" for example, if i'm located in C: and type: "cd programs", it takes me into directory c:\programs\

where is your krondor located and what are your mount commands?


note: you have to input whole mount thing everytime you start and turn dosbox off. or you can avoid repeating mount by inputing the commands into in dosbox config

First I mounted the directory, which is G:\abandonware\

It mounts fine, and when I input "dir" I can see all the games in there.

Then I input "dir krondor" which takes me to the Krondor files in that directory, G:\abandonware\krondor\

Now, is this the right place to input "krondor.exe"? Because that won't work...

read post again.. you don't input "dir krondor" you need to input "cd krondor". dir only shows list of files in a directory

Okay, that worked... Kinda.

When I did it right this time, the little window went blank for a moment, and then it was filled with psychedelic stripes flashing in different colors... And the only way to get out of it is by Ctrl+Alt+Deleting it...

What's the problem this time?

It shows you the files in krondor directory but you have to type "cd krondor"
to actually change the directory.
