Found I can't run this game on PCEM, weird.
Anyway, also noted there is no sound by default in Dosbox, (there is a solution on the forums). Anyway, as I was trying to troubleshoot I got that post, and from there I went to www.star-control.com where you can get ALL the switches. In case the site dies:
