You can also try using LOADFIX.
DOSBox has one advantage that may be a problem - it offers more free base memory than there would typically be in a normal DOS system. The advantage is that games with high bae memory requirements will work perfectly fine (I still remember how I had to configure my first machine's DOS boot config menu to have an option to not load EMM386, mouse and CD-ROM drivers so I could have sound and music working in Flasback), but the disadvantage is that some games will find more free memory than they expect to be. Which makes them freak out.

Yup, too much memory was the problem. Thank you.
