If you're not able to set up a virtual machine (Oracle VM Virtualbox is free), you're sort of limited. Going on what onlinebiker said, if you really want this game, you can check at pawn shops and similar stores to find an old machine. I use an old laptop to host a server on my LAN. It's an old piece of crap, but I threw Ubuntu on it.
