You can buy an old laptop for cheap on eBay, use it to run Windows 98 (which you can also buy for cheap on eBay), and play all the older games with ease. That's what works for me.
My laptop was originally made to run Windows XP, but I uninstalled the XP and put in 98se. It's a low-spec machine for XP, but 98 thinks it's the cat's pyjamas. More than enough oomph there not only for games, but for word processing and DTP when I want to do something slightly more serious.
My main gripe these days is that all the new games coming out won't run on Windows 98...
