Do you mean WINE (http://www.winehq.com/) for Linux? There's no such thing as PC ROMs.

DOS BOX? Perhapses


A ROM is a read only memory. The onlything close to that for a PC would be CD/dvd-rom's but you can already play them? Unless you mean the image file like ISO, and in that case you would use.. daemon Tools to mount it.

You also need to understand "P.C" is a broad term.. Just like "console" doesn't mean soley NES or N64, or Xbox, or PSone.

There are MANY different types of PC's out there. The most successful PC ever made (Commodore 64) gets little attention as it is, outside of the retro fanbase which itself is mainly European, and that's a 25 year old machine.
