Small change to the Audio tab: I know I can select SoundBlaster Type = none, but it would be more consistent with a checkbox to enable/disable SB like it is with GUS, PC-speaker, and Disney. Same goes for the Tandy. Please add an Enable checkbox.

Check your graphics drivers. Check that dxdiag gives you a clean report. Check that hardware acceleration is on (or off, or somewhere in between). Try changing it. Try changing output methods in DOSBox.

60 Seconds Guide to DOSBox . If that doesn't help, come back with details on how you mounted your C and D drives, how you did the install, how you configured sound, music etc. Note: For using the image instead of the physical CD, see my previous post. And, you might want to try running the game …

And if you don't do all the extra work of manually copying files around, and do a normal, standard install, does it still crash?

Hope it is okay for a non-Linux user to butt in... I assume you have experimented with different types of output? I don't remember if it is NVIDIA or ATI/AMD, but one of them has a significant better (and faster?) OpenGL driver than the other. Some of these output methods supports scaling the …

Using Daemon Tools with DOSBox is unnecessary. You can have DOSBox mount the image(s) directly. imgmount D "\path\to\cd\image.iso" -t iso
