Over a period of years (decades?) I have tried various utilities
claiming to use the hard drive to supply EMM to DOS.  None have
worked as well as I had hoped and most are LIM v3.0 and not LIM v4.0
as is most often required by DOS applications.

I would suggest that the easy way out of this dilema would be to
keep a healthy '486 or even early Pentium machine available for this
task rather than fight to get it going on newer hardware?

Good luck. ;-)
