I want to play a game that's on cd-rom but it is an older one made for windows95/98 and i have hp?

I found my Monopoly game that i love that i had for my old computer. When i put them into my HP laptop , nothing happens. i can open the filed and such but i dont know how to get it to work. Is there anyone to be able to play these windows 98 games on a HP computer. Thank you

Update:

I don't see a "compatibility mode" and I have looked every were. I right click and nothing like that has ever showed up. I have even searched for that on the computer and NOTHING.
