Finally unpacking after my move and I came across some old games I'd like to play. I had them when my IBM ValuePoint 486 was screaming HOT.
Now I have an AMD Athlon 3800+ with 1 GB ram, run Debian Etch amd64 with the nVidia driver in icewm. I have the dos 6.3 set of 5 floppies and the Windows 3.11 set of 6 floppies. I also have the Harpoon for windows CD. The question is what app to run to make it work. The choices seem to be dosbox qemu bochs The system requirements on the Harpoon CD are: 386 PC Dos 5.0 or higher Windows 3.1 or higher 2 MB ram hard disk VGA graphics card and monitor Sound Blaster or compatible CD-ROM drive MS compatible mouse. I've checked the list archives and there hasn't been a discussion on this since 2003 so I was wondering what the current consensus is. Right now I don't have a hard drive small enough to work with the IBM's BIOS (it doesn't even see the 6GB I have, yet alone not boot from it). Getting a CF card and reader for it is another project.
