Anyone familiar with DOSBox and Bandicam?

I use Bandicam and I found this old CD full of amazing old games I'd like to record... but the thing is the second I hit record DOSBox sound starts to lag. Yes, the sound! Not the game itself but the sound goes all weird and laggy.

Any help? I tried to add more memory or something (I'm a genius, I don't even know what I tried yes... xD) in the DOSBox settings but it didn't help. Maybe I did it wrong...

Well I use Bandicam and have used it for old games, but they were on emulators. :/
I believe that since the game is older, it is not used to the huge FPS, or the recording device itself. So, instead of playing the game itself, I imagine you should get an emulator, then get the game ROM, and record it with that, most likely it should work. If you need help on an emulator, or a ROM, PM me. :)

*nods* I will send you a PM asking what's a ROM and emulator. No I'm serious... xD Sadly.

It can be played actually. But don't use the directx thingy. Use the rectangle something.xD Why? Because old games don't run @ directx 7(which is theminimum of Bandicam)
