No C: drive after boot

The UBCD boots fine. However, when I start a DOS session, there is no C: drive. If I use any of the Hard Drive utilities, they can see the C: drive. What am I doing wrong in a DOS session?

If your filesystem is NTFS, you need to enable NTFS support when booting FreeDOS.
Otherwise, boot up NTFS4DOS instead, under Filesystem Tools, NTFS Tools.
Thanks

Thank you for the help. When FreeDOS was loading many dialog boxes appeared asking questions about NTFS, CD-ROM, etc. They appeared briefly then disappeared. I assumed that OK (or yes) was the default answer.

I have a UBCD cd that I use with my old Compaq Presario 1700T notebook and an external USB HD and it works great. UBCD sees C: and the external USB HD.
BUT I just got a HP DV6500 notebook and when I boot up from the same UBCD cd; UBCD does not see my C: drive but it sees my USB external drive.
Please help. Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
