You mean as in draging a game into DOSBox to run the game?

I am having troubles with dos box. i tried playing The need for speed with dos box but it won't start up. the game is in the c drive games folder but it tells me to mount the drive first what does that mean. The file is called TNFS. Do i need to type in exe or something after TNFS. I don't understand any of the help manuals. What do i do to play TNFS with dos box.

first you have to mount a drive so that DOSBox recogises it. Type:

mount c c:\nfs
c:
tnfs.exe

That should work!
