DOS emulator?

I'm running 2000 and I'd like to play some old DOS games. Only thing I can think of doing would be to install MS-DOS or *shudder* Windows 98 on a separate FAT partition and dual-booting. I just want to play one game (Syndicate Plus from Bullfrog...it rocks), there must be a way of getting around it without installing another OS. Are there any DOS emulators out there? If not, anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks.

Just tried that...

It goes to the A:\ prompt, but I can't access any other drives, C:, D:, E:

Keeps saying invalid drive specification.

Looks like I have to install 98SE on my other hard drive.
