You might want to find a good DOS emulator, such as DOSBox over at:
http://dosbox.sourceforge.net

Once it's set up and running it runs most old programs nicely (though the commands a little tricky to figure out at first I found).
Conan: "To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of the women!"
Mongol General: "That is good."

For SCI games (doesn't work as well as NAGI, you might want to try the DOS box thing instead)

Has this ever worked for anybody?
I've tried it many times without success, and so have many people I know
