I had the same problem on my clone, and then I remembered reading that some software must be run on the slower of the two speeds available on my computer so I hit the switch to change the speed to 4.77 MHz while booting and I have not had any trouble running the game. After the Ultima V title is shown you can switch your clone back to 10 MHz for faster playing. Mike Cipalla
