Some people adore D-Fend (a program to simplify the difficult DosBOX commands).
VDMSound is popular as well (another emulator).
If these programs do not work, read the Abandonia DOSBox tutorial or the official tutorial.

But, which game are you trying to run?

UFO:EU i assume.

Anyway, try the sugestions mentioned above.
If it doesn't work, post some more information here, exactly what isn't working.

(I have WinXP HE SP2, and i run UFO w/o any assistance of programs)

That's because it's the windows version, you need to find the Dos version. Isn't there a link somewhere on the download page for the Dos version?
