There's only two rules when using old software on Windows 7 or 8:

1: Don't install anything to C:\Program Files\
2: If the emulator is 16-bit and you're running a 64-bit version of the OS, the program won't run.

I've had NO issues getting any of my older emulators to work on Windows 7 32-bit, but I know that once I migrate to the 64-bit version, I'll lose access to many of my old hacking tools and emulators. Which is sad, but fine. There are much better emulators than those older ones out there.
