I was able to run it just fine on my 386/16, DOS6 & DBLSPACE. There is one thing you 
did that I didn't. Try just ZONE66 not ZONE66 /S. I type ZONE66 & it plays fine.
Make sure you bypass the startup files [f5]. No emm386, himem.sys, or setver or
anything. Just dblspace in conventional memory & thats all. It should run fine.
After all I'm no expert & got it to work. Good luck!
