50.000 cycles?? Sounds ridiculous high too me! What kind of hardware do you have there?

Which CPU core have you selected in dosbox.conf? Try dynamic. And read the Wiki section about running demanding games.

Hey man, you need some serious crash course in English language.

Anyway, I see your processor speed might be not enough for running demanding games. And judging from the screenshot of your windows desktop, you may need to disable a few things that you have running in the background.

Keep also in mind that built-in video isn't too fast either.
