Not really a solution if it has a GUI, dosbox only runs command line stuff.

Well that's not at all true, but it won't have the graphical environment you want.

What do you mean, dosbox can run programs with a GUI? Didn't know that...

If it couldn't do graphics it wouldn't be very useful for old games. You can run Windows 3.1, or used to haven't tried in a while. But it's not what is needed here even if it can.
