Buy Worms:Armageddon for extremely cheaply, and install the latest Beta Update (http://wa.team17.com/main.html?page=home&area=welc) (NOT the 3.0 patch). Otherwise, there's not a whole lot that can be done for you.

It should (I know WA does, I'm presuming W2 does as well) run in a virtual machine, so if your version of 7 supports XP mode (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx) you could try it in that. Otherwise there are other various virtual machines out there, but you'd need a copy of XP.

The game (Worms 2) should work, make sure it is patched to the latest version and you are using the latest video card drivers provided by the manufacturor (Nvidia, ATI or Intel etc.) and that your O/S is fully up to date.
