Windows 7 and windows 98 are both operating systems. What matters is the hardware platform. To answer the question, probably not. Most hardware platforms made in the days of windows 98 will not be sufficient for the needs of the windows 7 operating system.

I have installed and played it on Win98 and XP. Both installments provided problem - free gameplay. It won`t, however, play on newer computers, like Windows7. This system installs the files but won`t launch the game. Using Windows 98, you should be able to install and play the game.
