I have a laptop with Windows 7 that is set up to emulate XP, 2000, and 98se. What you do is set up a virtual machine, which creates a subenvironment and lets you open a window in which you can install and run previous versions of Windows. Then you install your legacy software via that virtual machine window.
Doesn't work 100% of the time, but it's not too bad -- maybe 95%.
For windows 7:

For later versions:

Have fun.
I think I'm going to go this route. I am the sort of gamer who would go for setting up an old machine, but that's a very time-consuming ordeal. Hopefully virtualbox will allow me to run the game.
In my opinion, btw, that's one of the best strategy RPG games ever. I think if you can figure it out, I might follow your footsteps and give it another playthrough myself.
