Why can it not run on XP?

Has tried almost any patches available on the net, tried running it in
different compabillity modes, tried Nvidia patch - nothing helps...

Has anyone an idea what to do? I understand that EA state that it runs on
W95/98 only, but I know it can run on 2000 and XP too.

Has Nvidia FX 5200 Ultra with 256mb

Athlon processor.

Come on, give me your best shoot!

It runs fine on my system, with XP SP2, and compatability
mode turned off. What is the specific problem you are having?

Make sure you run the 3dsetup program before running the game.
