Can you tell whether the error is from Champ Man or Windows itself?

Are you running vista? 
 
If it's dos based and it's in vista I doubt you'll get it to work.

or boot to a standalone o/s from a cd or usb drive (instead of vista) and run it from there?

What's the latest version of Windows it can run on? 
 
I'm sure you could download a 'virtual' Windows from the MS site for free for older OSs, they just are limited to x amount of days usage IIRC?

download miscroft virtual PC. Basically it creats a Virtual PC inside and completly sperate from your Vista install. Doesnt write t ur c:\ drive, it creates a virtual drive. Install Win 95, 3.1 or summing to the virtual PC then install said game
