If you have not already, I would try using WINE. This is a pretty good Microsoft emulator and may do the trick for you. There is another application that you may want to give a try called "play on linux" It works pretty much the same way that WINE does but is made more for playing games made more for use with Microsoft operating systems. Good luck.
