Windows 10: Extreme lag on Red Alert 2

So, I came across an old game that I had played when I was younger. I bought the game but I'm getting frames that are unplayable which is pretty dang sad. I've tried to run it in Compatibility mode & running it in 640x480 with no success. Help is appreciated.

Can anyone can fix this? PLSE HELP!!!
