Musictex is out-dated. As a beginner you should start with its successor
MusiXTeX. Although a 3-phase process it is similar fast as musictex.

Looks like that your TeX-system does not find the music-fonts. The bar
lines, stems, texts, horizontal beams, ... are displayed with quite
basic TeX fonts or TeX-features.

What happens if you look at or print some pages of musictex.dvi?

Did you install the right fonts (*.pk) at the right place? If pctex
is able to generate the fonts on the fly you could try to delete
the pk-files and let them generate.
