We use Virtual PC 4.2 or 4.3 from Connectix on Windows 2000 to run OS/2 Warp 4 for development and testing purposes. VMware does not support OS/2, and we've had better overall experience with VPC than VMware. The connectix support forums are good source of info: www.Connectix.com/support, go to the forums, Virtual PC for Windows.

Will BOCHS run on that version of windows? You may have a chance with
that too -- I've heard that it would boot OS/2, but that's second hand
information.
