How old is the game is it XP compatible? Look on the box, if it doesn't say it supports XP then I suspect you won't be able to play it on XP.

I got the game and it needs these

CPU = 500mhz
OS = 98/2000/ME/XP
DirectX = 8.1 or Above
Memory = 128MB
HDD = 1.2GB
CD - DVD = 4 Speed
Graphics = 32MB with Hardware transform and lighting
3d Accelerator

It runs fine on my pc but my specs are way over these.

Only problem i could see with is the card you need ot get something new get a Ati or nVidia with 128mb or 256mb and make sure its a good model. Look at the guides about the graphics card.

What sort of AGP slot is it 8x or 4x or 2x or 1x

I would just look around on the graphics card area and see at mid range cards take a look and see what you like also listen to Rossco and Clocker i have learnt alot from them. Praise for you two their.

But u should look at card, i am not sure if it would be compatible tho.
