I'm having the same problem I've seen some others having. I bought a new computer which had Windows 7.

I installed the game and then downloaded the 1.4b patch (for the DVD version of the game). When I try to run the game I get the following error message: This application can be launched with a release version of Microsoft Windows 95/OSR2.1/98/ME/NT 4.0/2000/XP Server 2003 only.

Is there anything I can do to fix this? I see some people have just bought a new version from Steam. As much as it chaffs me to do so... would it be best for me to just pay the $9.99 to download it from Steam? And if I download it from Steam will it be compatible with Windows 7? I'd hate to pay twice for the same game and it still not work.
