I posted on github and got the answer right away. Got it to install but haven't
got to try anything yet. Basically I had to delete this paragraph in
install.bat:

echo ---------------------------------------------
echo Checking machine, please wait...
echo ---------------------------------------------
reg query HKLM\Hardware\Description\System\CentralProcessor\0 | Find /i "x86"
>nul
if not errorlevel 1 (
  echo You appear to be running this installation on a 32bit machine.
  echo This NTVDMx64 is only meant to be used on an x64 machine, please use 
  echo NTVDM shipped with your windows installation instead.
  echo Installation aborted
  pause
  goto fini
)
