As far as I can tell, the game is trying to read data from its' CD. One it cannot find because it hasn't been mounted in DOSBox yet.
What you need to do is mount your CD-Rom drive in DOSBox for the game to read its data from the CD. Since it seems its' drive letter is E, that would be:
mount E E:\ -t cdrom
I also suggest you reinstall the game under DOSBox (first move the saves somwhere else so you don't lose them), in case it's actually a file corruption problem.

Are you able to download Xcom on this site and should I just do that and see if that works? I know it is not illegal to download a ROM of a game that you already own. Also, where do I download it?[/b]
1. No, because it's sold.
2. Is it? Far as I know, it is only legal to make a backup from the copy you yourself posess.
3. Can't tell you. ESA would have our heads on pikes the next day after.
