Johnny, go download Dosbox.
http://www.dosbox.com/

once loaded, you can install it to the drive you want. or hover over the windows logo bottom left, right click and click Open Windows Explorer, and click to your CD drive, then click on the install file. should work. If not, go into dosbox (windows one) and try that. once installed, run the Program wrapper DOSBox, it handles DOS games really well, and especially ones that use that EMM386 crap. )
