    Hi anyone who can help - I just downloaded PC-Basic to my Win10 64bit laptop and installed as Admin with all user access. I used the default install directeory locations. I then clicked on the icon and it started OK giving the the expected baic screen. So far all good!

    My basic progams are located in my User directory C:\Users\Dave1\Documents|Basic so I typed Mount=A:C\Users\Dave1\Documents\Basic (per the instructions in the on-line documentation) only to get the error message "SYNTAX ERROR".

    I've checked and rechecked the mount syntax I used but as best i can see it is per the documentation.

    Any suggestions anyone?

    Thanks Dave

    Hi, tryping tha mount line in the BASIC window will indeed give a Syntax error.

    This is not a BASIC command but a setting you can provide in the configuration file or on the Windows command prompt. See here for how to change settings: http://robhagemans.github.io/pcbasic/doc/#settings
