Check your computer's system information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or a x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher
Definitively not a dosbox error message.
Means you're on Win7 64.
To set up dosbox correctly in win7 read and apply:

Put your baldies folder in \oldgames\ , run dosbox and do a
cd baldies
work from there.

If you get the typical dosbox error 'this is a windows executable' VPC/W9x will be your solution. ( I know for a fact that baldies win version runs fine in VPC2007/W98SE).

You could try WinXP mode for Win7, but I doubt it will run as WinXP mode doesn't like lower screen res, and if I remember swell baldies needs 640x480.
