I'd recommend you snag the OrCAD for DOS in the 386+ version, from the Yahoo interest group, (cost=US$00.00+some whiskey, MAALOX, and prune juice), and automatically import your old OrCAD schematics and libraries there. Then, having done that, you can do as I do, and work the schematics and layouts in the 386+ software and, if and when you really have to, move 'em (pretty much automatically) to the current OrCAD Capture.

That will cost a bit, but at least the translation from the old to the new can be highly automated.
