Former program is not Compatible with Windows 7

I have windows 7 on my computer, but want to use a CD with system requirements of:

486 or higher; 8 MB OF RAM

at least Windows 3.1, 95/98, NT

at least a 33 MHz processor

2 X CD-ROM drive or even faster watch display 640 X 480 pixels and 256 colors

This program does not open upward, I get message that my version of windows is not compatible.

What can I do to open this program.  I think I have great and fast enough processor.

This is an installer for an old CD player is not working?

It is perhaps that there is no W7 drivers for it to install or run (esp if you use W7 64 bit and the road goes up to 32-bit days).

If the above assumption is correct, what is the real brand and model of the drive? Using 32 or 64 bit W7?

Armed with the above, have a look at drivers for it manufacturing and site of CD players for their latest software supported. Maybe it's that they do not support W7 at all if its an old drive.

According to what is in fact the program, pouvez be able to run it in compatibility mode - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/make-older-programs-run#1TC=windows-7 which can sometimes have some success.
