I remember poking around with the DOS port for fun. Did anyone create a tool which converts the Windows DAT format to the format that DOS used?

Hm, some old topic right here.

Yes, you can run Chip's Challenge DOS in windows, but it will run slowly (if you have Windows NT/2000/XP/Vista/7/8/8.1)

DOSBox is another option.
