Older versions of Windows (i.e. 3.0/3.1) had "standard" and "Enhanced"
modes. Enhanced, of course, required an 80386, but I believe
that standard mode would work with older processors, and lower
memory configurations.
There's PC emulator for Linux/x86 called DOSEMU, and while it
has difficulty running 386 enhanced mode (even though it
emulates, or rather virtualizes, a 486 or pentium chip), it runs
standard mode just fine. (well, as fine as 3.x-era Windows would
run)
