Old laptop is too slow for dos emulation.
If a game runs too fast decrease the cyles in dosbox (read the readme)

change all 'rates' to 8000
disable all unneccessary devices in the config too, ESPECIALLY OPL EMULATION

Yes, dosbox has its use on Pentium 1's 😀

You might even want to use the hal megabuild, it's faster because you can passthrough that OPL to the real thing (win95 laptops most likely have OPL3)
