Okay guys, here's what I did to get it to work. I then uninstalled it and reinstalled it to doublecheck. This should work on newer machines with windows xp.
Dled the cd version of the game and burned it to a cd just to make things easier. If you don't wanna do that just remember where you unzipped the game to as this will be your "cd"
Installed the game. When it starts asking you about your sound card click no and cancel out of that.
Open dosbox, create a new profile for your game. Make malcom.bat your game exe and setup your setup.exe
For mounting click auto once and then click add.
Change drive to cd-rom and click browse and choose the cd with the game or the folder you're using as your "cd"
Go through and finish the profile.
Right click the name and choose run setup. You should get past the infamous benchmarking problem. Once that exits out double click and it SHOULD be working.
Sorry if someone answered this already but that's how I got it to work.
