Has anybody got any bright ideas as to how I can get this onto my old 486 ?
(I assume your 486 uses Windows, but it's too slow for DOSBox? How can you run Windows in a 486? You must have expanded its RAM, haven't you?)

I don't know if it's bright, but you could use my solution. I installed good old DOS 6.22 in a partition of the hard drive, and I can boot either in Windows (normally) or in DOS (real DOS not "DOS mode" or anything, for playing old games). Then it's not *as if* you were running such game under DOS, it's that you *are* running such game under DOS.
