      here u go change your file to that -

      [autoexec]
      @ECHO OFF
      MOUNT -u C
      MOUNT C /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pc/MADDOGMC
      IMGMOUNT D /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/pc/MADDOGMC/CD/MADDOG.ISO -t iso
      c:
      cd MadDog > NUL
      cls
      maddog
      exit
      

      Just put your MADDOG folder in that name folder in the pc folder .
      pc/MADDOGMC/MADDOG
      and cd iso image in a folder -
      pc/MADDOGMC/CD/MADDOG.ISO
      .
      pay attention all the names need to be the same (with big letters)
      or u can change it.
      hope it helps ;)

                      Got to say i never change anything there in the sound options or even go there.
                      check another msdos game , u have sound with it ?
                      this is my dosbox-SVN.conf - (in the folder retropie/configs/pc)

                      # This is the configuration file for DOSBox SVN. (Please use the latest version of DOSBox)
                      # Lines starting with a # are comment lines and are ignored by DOSBox.
                      # They are used to (briefly) document the effect of each option.
                      
                      [sdl]
                      #       fullscreen: Start dosbox directly in fullscreen. (Press ALT-Enter to go back)
                      #       fulldouble: Use double buffering in fullscreen. It can reduce screen flickering, but it can also result in a slow DOSBox.
                      #   fullresolution: What resolution to use for fullscreen: original, desktop or a fixed size (e.g. 1024x768).
                      #                     Using your monitor's native resolution with aspect=true might give the best results.
                      #                     If you end up with small window on a large screen, try an output different from surface.On Windows 10 with display scaling (Scale and layout) set to a value above 100%, it is recommended
                      #                     to use a lower full/windowresolution, in order to avoid window size problems.
                      # windowresolution: Scale the window to this size IF the output device supports hardware scaling.
                      #                     (output=surface does not!)
                      #           output: What video system to use for output.

                      #      sensitivity: Mouse sensitivity. The optional second parameter specifies vertical sensitivity (e.g. 100,-50).
                      #      waitonerror: Wait before closing the console if dosbox has an error.
                      #         priority: Priority levels for dosbox. Second entry behind the comma is for when dosbox is not focused/minimized.

                      and i have a *.sh fie that ruining the config of that before like that -
                      maddogmc.sh (in just the PC FOLDER)

                      #!/bin/bash

                      try add this files with the data inside , and run the *.sh file.
                      hope it will make it work ;)

                                          Thank for the details

                                          I actually ended up doing a fresh install last night before I went to sleep and I haven't installed anything yet

                                          I will try it this morning and info you

                                          One question I need to ask , I did notice no sound again with the fresh install

                                          Should I click audio

                                          • Default

                                          Or

                                          • HDMI

                                          ( my tv is connected through HDMI )
