No, the versions are ok. I use 0.74-3 too and it works.

It might be something connected to drivers or programs you load in DOSBox. Try using it bare with empty [autoexec] and [config] sections in dosbox.conf/dosbox-x.conf and without autoexec.bat.

What OS?

I am sorry if I'm bothering you with this. I just think there shouldn't be that big difference between similar versions of DOSBox and that it might be easily solvable. Maybe I'm wrong, but my tech support senses are tingling. If you don't want to bother, it's ok. I won't ask you anything about that anymore. :)
