I have recently started using Dosbox 0.72 (My first version) to play X-Com Apocalypse. It works fairly well, however there has been 1 crash (divide by 0 error dos4gw reported), and the game hangs at midnight on my save game after you ok the status/financial screen. This game is saved at 23:11 on April 4th, so not awfully far in, and the freezes are each time at midnight.

My motherboard is an Asus motherboard. I don't know the model.

Adapter RAM 512.00 MB (536,870,912 bytes)
Sound card:
Name Creative Audigy Audio Processor (WDM)
Manufacturer Creative Technology, Ltd.
OS:
OS Name Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition

X-com Apocalypse, authentic CD version (No patches were ever released as far as I know). No cracks or hacks applied - full install off cd, as well as standard install. Volume in drive D is XCOM APOC V1.00 25 June 1997

Game runs well, except for the freeze at midnight, which I can't get around. Have been unable to continue past this point. Do I need to restart or something? I can provide the save file if needed.
This problem is 100% repeatable for me, and I can not avoid it.

I have taken the following steps to try to fix the problem:
Tried fullscreen and windowed
Installed the game fully instead of running partially off the cd.
set fulldouble=false
changed memsize=64 from 16.
changed core=auto to normal, and dynamic
changed cycles=30000 to 25000, 35000, and several other values.
added -freesize 1024 to the mounting for hard drive
added -usecd 0 to the mounting for cd. Also used some other weird thingy to install as was suggested on these forums.
Not really sure where to go from here. I am using Dosbox by itself. No vdm or dos32a, or anything.
