64-bit Windows does not support 16-bit applications. So if the game really is as old as you claim, it must be a 16-bit application which cannot be run under Windows 64-bit.

Try to find a 32-bit version of the game you're trying to install. Else you'll have to run the game within a Virtual system or an emulator like DOSBOX.

You can try Universal Extractor to pack the installer out, but this may result not installing important registry keys of the program
