Earlier versions need cputype=386 due to an issue with how the CPU is identified. This also applies to earlier versions of Lands of Lore.

The 1.40 patch version (you can get the patch from Patches Scrolls) doesn't have the CPU issue, but it does seem to need ems=false.

Use default settings except for cputype=386 and ems=false. Version 1.00c and 1.40 of the game are working here with those settings in 0.74 and the Daum build. However, the 1.40 version doesn't need the cputype to be changed.
