The above link is directions for installing Quake using dosbox.
Quake will not install on Windows 7 64-bit. You need to use dosbox.
Get a frontend for Dosbox and get the 64-bit version of dosbox.
Once you get it installed just unzip you're favorite Quake source port into the directory.
Dark places or directq are nice ports.

Above is a link to the DarkPlaces Quake 1 engine.
It is the best port at this time.
When at the above site make sure to download Romi's rtlights file for Quake, and the darkforces models.
Create a darkforces directory
Unzip the darkforces port into that directory
Create an Id1 subdirectory
Copy pako.pak and pak1.pak from quake into the Id1 subdirectory
Follow the directions that come with Romis rtlights and the darkplaces models to install them.
All files can be downloaded from links at the darkforces website.
The lights are really good looking. Romis took time to hand process every single light source in Quake. The care shows.
Enjoy Retro gaming
