Heroes of Might and Magic 2 troubleshoot

Hey there peoples. I got a question about heroes two. I haven't played it in many a year. and I have had a few computers since last playing it. I decided to try it out for shits and giggles. but the thing is that, like most old games (Heroes VII is another one I have tried but failed) they aren't compatable with newer systems.
Is there a way for me to play them? Is there a patch or even (long shot) an emulator that I can download so I can play these games?

Did you play aroudn with Windows XP's compadability settings?

never done that before. where would I do that?

Right click on the .exe file and click on properties, in there there is a compatability tab, this is in WinXP only. In that tab you can run the program as it should in various OS' down to Win95. It is worth a shot, since I remeber running Heroes 2 in Win 95.
