Worked out of the box for me, what variation of XP are you
running? I played it pre SP2, possibly even pre SP1.

I've only ever played it on XP(SP1 & 2) & had no worries.
Is it a problem with your graphics card? You could try changing the graphics

I played it on XP home (NO SP installed), and it worked just fine...
