I don't know.

Do you have something running in the background?

Did you try using dynamic core?

What version of DOSBox is it?

Also, what version of SDL do you have installed?

I can't find any info for a game called "Golden Age". Your system may be too slow to run it - how old is it?

If you can, please try version 1.2.7 of SDL, that resolves some issues Windows users are seeing in the latest SDL release (see CVS Builds By AEP)

I remember SEGA's Golden Axe uses AdLib music and Internal Speaker digitised sounds (No Sound Blaster samples?), so I am guessing the stutter you hear comes from it (under some games, there is a noticeable stutter when using digitised sounds with internal speaker).
