The floppy image is a bootable image (lilo in MBR).
If your computer is able to boot floppies (without
the Virtual PC stuff), you should be able to boot the
floppy version. Then, if you have a spare partition,
you can install BL3 there and subsequently run it from
your Virtual PC (hopefully).

Or, alternatively, your Virtual PC might be able to
run the QEMU image.

I'm just guessing here -- I know nothing about the
capabilities of your Virtual PC.

Cheers,
Steven
