every game that i run in dosbox has sound problems. the problem is that the sound\music are incomplete. usually but not always, the problem is the background music is missing. is there any way to correct this problem?

First of all you should check that the setup of the games sound is corresponding to the way DOSbox is set up. In the DOSbox config file there should be a section looking something like this:

Now you just need to make sure to use these values when setting up the sound for your games. I can't remember if I made any changes to these values, so check what they are in your own config, instead of using the ones I've posted here.

thanks
