How to play Civilization 1 on Windows 7 64 bit (with Virtual PC)

A new summer project; programming Civilization 1 from scratch. The first order of business was getting down how to get Civ1 working on my computer (Windows 3.1 version, not that DOS crap). Civilization for windows can only be run in x86 unfortunately, but there is a working Microsoft workaround.

This solution shows that you can use virtual desktop to run the old 32bit Civ.exe windows client on a Win 7 64 bit system. I have had success with Civ.exe on Vista and XP so I will not discuss those.

What you will need:
  • Original Civilization files for Windows (no install necessary)
  • Virtual PC
  • Windows 7 Professional or higher

1. Go here: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx

Download Windows XP Mode and Virtual XP if you don't have either already.




2. Install both.

3. Start up Windows XP Mode, create a login and follow the setup process.

4. Find a way to transfer your CIVWIN folder to your virtual windows xp. I emailed myself the folder zipped up, then opened the internet on the virtual pc and downloaded it.

5. Start the game! CIV.exe. Need the manual for the pesky knowledge test? Find it here.
