reasonably certain (having run 16-bit only software on windows 7 and

NTVDM/16-bit applications. With windows 8 you have to install the
subsystem (its not installed by default) but it does work.
That's the rub--I believe that Mark said that he was using Win 10
64-bit. The hardware's not there to run 16-bit code natively in 64 bit
mode.
WINE is probably pretty good, or DOSBox, or VirtualBox--something that
can emulate/translate the 16-bit code to something that 64 bit Windows
can run.
