Win 7 Descent 3 Install Help

Hello, I recently bought a new copy of Descent 3 (Old one got broken years ago) and I have been trying to install it. However, when I try to launch either the setup.exe or the autorun file from the disc, they come up in task manager's process list but the program doesn't open. I used to play Descent years ago and was wanting to get back into it. I wasn't sure if my current system was a bit too much for a game from the 90s. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

System Specs:
Amd FX-8120 @ 3.99GHz
12gb DDR3 1600 Memory
Evga GTX 760
Samsung 840Evo SSD
Asus Bluray burner/ Multidrive
Windows 7 x64 Home Premium

Right click setup.exe and select "run as administrator".
