Well thanks to this thread I got interested in making The Dig work again. Thanks to DosBox, and some patience, it is.
On another note I couldn't get Wing Commander 4 working even with that. Fortunatly, I found out EA has a little known FTP site where they host patches for Origins games, and one of those "patches" is actually WC4 for Windows, well it's a windows executable that uses the DOS game's files so you still need to have the original game. Point is, now not only is WC4 working, it's working flawlessly.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
