Could you post the relevant line or section of your code? That way people can see what is going on rather than trying to guess why this is happening.

I'm not sure if it's the problem, but shouldn't you use the "other type of backslash" (whatever it's called )?

Like that.

no, its definately a forward slash. Check if you wrote the directory exactly also check if the exe is compiling to the right folder (i sometimes get that problem).

Dark Basic Pro does not keep track of weather it is a forword or backword slash so it really dosn't matter

1 thing to check. are you running this from your desktop? (ie, is the exe actually residing in a folder you've got on your desktop?) i've had problems like this recently moving my folders to desktop (when the program was originally in a c:...projects folder and worked fine), and it seems to sometimes get confused as to which user's desktop location it's in (specific vs "shared").

it even happens when i try to use a dynamic location for the object's i want to load. ie: (pseudo)

a$ = get dir$
load object a$+"/models/warrior.x",1

anyway, it's worth mentioning.
