    The simplest virtual machine may be DosBox:

    DOSBox, an x86 emulator with DOS

    I haven't used it, but it installs and starts up OK under Win7 X64.
    And how do I use said Virtual Box sir?

    I downloaded it and installed it, now what?
    As I wrote, I've not used it.

    I guess that you'd have the game in a directory on your hard drive. You mount that directory from within the DosBox environment. Then launch the game's executable. (Or does it require an installer?)

    I see that it's supposed to be compatible:

    DOSBox, an x86 emulator with DOS

    but I find no details on installing or running it.
    Alright I've mounted Chip's Challenge... now how do I run it? O.o
    Now I'm able to see the contents of it through the folder... getting closer

    Did you click on the FAQ link in the page you downloaded from?
    It looks there are Guides in there that might help you.
