Latest OS to support GalCiv I?

from GalCiv2 Forums

Does anyone know what, exactly, is the latest operating system that can still run the original Galactic Civilizations? I've always been interested in giving it a try, just for comparison's sake, and as I'll be buying a new laptop sometime soon I want to take this into consideration.

I don't know about Win 8, but it definitely works on Win 7 64 bit.

Just a word of warning: the tech tree is a nightmare, only colonize planets with PQ 15 or better (everything below goes from bad to worse, and you have to pay extra maintenance) and don't expect to make sense in how improvements affect your planet's output (it is mainly determined by the PQ and some arcane formula).
