Did it work for you before with the same configuration?
If yes, have you tried reinstalling the game?
If not, where did you get your Daggerfall copy?
Did you install from within DOSBox?
Do other games work?

got it to work now, to a degree, after fiddling around with config files both for dosbox and Daggerfall.
now i am able to make a new char, watch the emperor talk and bid me to rest well this night, and then it all end in a black screen just as it is about to load Privateers Hold.

Yes. If the game has configuration files that refer to directory paths, they won't be correct unless the game was installed with the same mountings (i.e. the same directory hierarchy) as when played.

You should download the actual version available from Bethesda for free ( http://www.elderscrolls.com/downloads/downloads_games.htm ). Who knows what you have there. If you do that, follow the instructions they post on how to install it from within Dosbox, it really does work. I've done it.

got it to work now, appearently the dosbox config didnt deal out the memory Daggerfall aquired.
thnx for the help though.
