You must first upgrade the BIOS on the 5150 PC for it to use DOS 3.x.  I don't
know where you can get a BIOS for it though.  Also, the memory upgrade will be
necessary.  There was some recent talk on the FidoNet about someone upgrading
a 5150, so I'll check over there and see if anyone remembers what had to be
done.
