As stated in the Subject I have problems running Colonization.

My required info (what I could find out):

Processor type and speed: Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 Duo CPU 2.53 GHz
Amount and type of RAM: 4 GB RAM
Operating system : Windows VISTA 64-bit
Game name (and version, if applicable) : Colonization
Description of problem : When I try to run the game via DOSBox it just says: "This program must be run under Microsoft Windows".
Reproducibility of problem (always, only once, always but only on a specific level, etc.) : ALWAYS ( I NEVER GOT IT GOING ON THIS COMP)
Version of emulator : DOSBox version 0.74
Steps already attempted to solve the problem: Been on Google for hours, read the readme etc.

I really LOVE this game and would VERY much appreciate any support I can get on this.

You are running the windows version of the game or some sort of windows installer for the game.
Not the DOS version. DOSBox runs only DOS programs.
