Dosbox version?
Mount lines?
Original game? (CD?)
Downloaded?
Install choices?

Apparently, you have configured your sound devices incorrectly.

DOSBox fully emulates SoundBlaster/Pro/16, and also General MIDI/Roland Sound Canvas for MIDI music.

The crash you are experiencing might be related to incorrect sound card settings, such as IRQ, DMA and port address. The default DOSBox values for those are:

Port: 220
IRQ: 7
DMA: 1

The sound setup programme of Theme Park might not auto-detect these values correctly, and the YouTube video you watched could have also supplied faulty information.

You need to re-run the sound setup programme from within DOSBox and make sure you have set up your sound devices properly.
