Try running the game THROUGH DosBox.

Here we go again...

1) Type: "mount c:" and then the directory in which your game is stored (e.g. "mount c: c:\games\constructor\"). Press enter
2) Type "c:" press enter
3) now type the name of the game .exe (e.g. "constructor.exe"). press enter

If the game runs too slow use CTRL+F12 to speed it up. CTRL+11 slows it down.

It's just basic DosBox usage...
