I actually installed SHCE using DOS Box using this procedure:
Make sure your C:\oldgms (or whatever you called it) folder just has the D folder with the copy of the SHCE disk. The file tree should be:
C:\oldgms\d
Open DOS Box.
Type:
mount c c:\oldgms
Type:
mount d c:\oldgms\d -t cdrom
Type:
d:
Type:
install
The SH installer will automatically create the SILENT folder in your oldgms folder and you can then run SOUND to set up the audio. It actually seems to me like this may be a sound issue, I re-installed SHCE as a test and got the same XMS error message as you during set up.
When done, move the D folder into the SILENT folder.
Do not use the auto set up for the sound card. Select SoundBlaster (Not SB-16 or pro) and configure it manually. I just tried auto set up with SB-16 emulation and got a CTD just like you.
I hope this helps.
