Please do not spam.

What is your computer specs? DOSBox require a lot of processing power because of emulation so if you have a weak computer it's quite normal that you get jumpy sound.

Make sure you run dosbox in full screen instead of a window...

That is impossible. As you have the game running in DOsBox just alt+enter.

You can also make DOSBox fullscreen by default by editing the configuration file. I'm not 100% sure but I think you need to locate a line looking like "fullscreen=false" and turn it into "fullscreen=true". Or something similar, just turn it to "true".
