    Default Write permissions for dosbox

    I need some help giving dosbox write permissions to my psp.

    Dosbox itself appears to be working fine. I have HOMM2 working (albiet slowly). The problem comes when I try to write over any files. For example I can't overwrite saved games, and thus HOMM2 crashes at the end of the turn as it can't autosave. I get an error saying "Unable to open file Autosave.gm1" or words to that effect. I am able to save new save files, just not write over existing ones.

    I have a similar problem in Wacky Wheels, with an error as I load the game saying "Cannot open WACKY.CFG for WRITE/UPDATE".

    It all points to a permission problem but i dont know how to fix it. Any help would be appreciated.

    I'm using the most recent version of dosbox, and am running firmware 1.5.

    EDIT: I should mention that none of the files in question are read only.

    Default

    I hate to bump my own thread but I was wondering if anyone knew of a solution to my dosbox problem. Anytime dosbox tries to save any games the program crashes.

    Anyone solved this problem?
