If INT 21/0E returns less than 26 drives, the bug doesn't occur. I think there is a patch made by Qbix to change the Z: drive in DOSBox to something else, which might help, but it's not easy for everyone to use. The attached TSR will work around the problem by indicating 1 less drive for INT 21/0E. Once the game is installed, restart DOSBox to remove the TSR from memory, because its influence could be a problem elsewhere.
The patch allows me to run the CD installation, but when I run the game I only get the sound effects and the CD-Audio tracks do not play.
If during the game I press ESC, a menu appears and tells me that the music is activated, but no music is heard.
Do CD-Audio tracks play on your computers under DOSBox?

They do when you imgmount the cue file.
For example, this is the line mounting my Warcraft II image (bin/cue): imgmount D "Warcraft II.cue" -t iso -fs iso
CD audio works that way.

Well, of course I mount the .cue file. Otherwise you would not be able to access the directory and run INSTALL.EXE from the CD-Rom.
It seems like a specific problem with this game, since from DOSBox I play CD-Audio in dozens of other games.

Make sure that your .cue file lists audio tracks, because it might not.
A quirk of the game is to set the SB, FM, and CD sound volumes quite low, so try setting sbmixer=false in DOSBox settings to see if that helps in your case.

I can't believe it, was a sbmixer problem.
Thanks for your help, mate.
