Did you try hitting CTRL-F12 several times while the game was running? I
think the default settings run the games slowly because there are a lot
of old games that are just unplayable at modern computer speeds. Each
time you hit CTRL-F12 it speeds up emulation, just don't speed it up
faster than your computer will handle or it will become slow again.

Just finished a game of Master of Orion in Dosbox not 10 minutes
ago.
