Space Rangers 2 on Windows 7

[rainorshine]

I dug out the disk for Space Rangers 2 the other day and was really excited to give it a shot again. I'm running Windows 7 (64-bit) and when I try to start the game I get the following message in a Starforce window:

Error
This application can be launched with a release version of Microsoft Windows 95 OSR2.1/98/ME/ NT 4.0/2000/XP/ Server 2003 only.

Am I out of luck or is there a patch/work around?
