I remember back in the early 90's I have an IBM, that looked exactly like this http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...
I have been trying to learn as much about these models, but there appear to be many variations.
I need to know now, can Windows 3.1 be installed on an IBM PS/2 30/286 8530-E01??
Windows 3.1 is what I ran on my old IBM, I remember playing Wolf 3D and Commander Keen, Xargon, etc.

"can Windows 3.1 be installed on an IBM PS/2 30/286..."
Yes, but it runs in "Standard Mode", it won't run in "386 Enhanced Mode":

You would had to have played the games in DOS. If you are just looking for a DOS emulator to play the games, you might want to look into DOSBox:

Thanks for the info!
I dont like using Dosbox however, I prefer to use the original machine in the same way I did oh so many years ago.
I have a fun collection of machines and gaming systems.
I even have an old PC with dual tape drives lol.
