Was just going to suggest Dosbox, but BrunoPuntzJones beat me to it. It takes a little playing with to get it set up well, but it should run things.

I just got mine playing Quarantine just the other day. Damn, that game so ownz!! What I'd give for a version with a modern graphics engine.

Ha! I just installed PQ3 on my Win98 machine... it runs insanely fast and its impossible to do the driving part. I've been playing with Mo' Slo' but I dont seem to be able to get it running at the right speed.
