Can I play Arena + Daggerfall on Windows 7 64bit?

Is there anyway for me to make them work?
When I open INSTALL for Arena up it tells me that I can't because I've got a 64bit version of Windows :S

You will need to install and run both Arena and Daggerfall through DosBox (or a suitable DOS emulation program). There is a sticky at the top of this forum that has all the info you need.

Yea I downloaded DosBox as well but they ask me to press and INSTALL.exe for Arena but then it tells me I can't because I've got a 64bit version of Windows... Is there a way to open it up with 64bit?
