I'm serious, I've done it that way for Doom, Jazz Jackrabbit and tons of other games. And I actually do usually mount to C, but it doesn't seem to matter what letter of virtual dirve I use to mount to. And since I sometimes like to switch between multiple games in one sitting (instead of exiting dosbox and remounting) I just mount to a different letter. So I've gotten into a habbit of just starting at A and working my way up. Hence why it says A in the picture.

Abuse is the first game ever to react to this. Since it's never been a problem for me before I didn't think something as simple as that could be the problem.

Anyways, thanks for your help. I'll do as you suggest and read some tutorials -_-

In DOS, A and B letters were reserved for floppy drives. Some games can run that way regardless, but others will refuse to.
