@noumenon it depends on how old! Are you talking Windows 95 old or Dos old? Either way, step 1 I suggest is to start from Linux. Step 2 depends on your answer to the above :)
@A_Random_Idiot well for example Alpha Centauri and even Civ 2 were really easy for me. I used wine without any wrappers, I simply set an older Windows compatibility version in winecfg. StarCraft also worked easily though I wasn’t able to set it to full screen properly on Wayland and had to re-login into Xorg for it. Let’s see if OP provides us with more details
last time I tried it was Simcity 4, and I couldnt get it to install right.
But I’m not an IT/SysAdmin professional. I’m just a random idiot, so my capabilities with linux… while improving over the years, are still far from useful in most circumstances.

Its not exactly easy on linux either at least for average users like me, unless you are lucky to find a lutris script specifically for the CD install.
at least in my experience.
