I recently purchased amfv and as far as i can tell it is a true
ms-dos game.
The external documentation said PC-DOS but the internal documention appeared
to be for a generic ms-dos game.
The game is not copy protected and can be loaded on a hard disk.
It should work on any ms-dos computer but I would get agreement from the
dealer that you can return it if it doesn't work.
They do have a crude form of copy protection in that there is
a decoder that is necessary to enter the simulation mode.
I had no trouble with amfv on the AT&T PC6300.
