DOSEMU or FreeDOS in a VM (e.g. Virtualbox) typically gives the best performance with decent ease-of-use. Otherwise, you'll want to run it natively on Windows XP or earlier, or FreeDOS. For running in a VM, you'll need to have an x86 processor with hardware-assisted virtualization enabled. DosBOX might work and is worth trying due to its ease of setup, but you really need a very powerful machine.
