    Here's a few more things you can try...

    Reinstall your graphics card driver....  Right click on the "my  computer" click "properties", click the "hardware" tab, select "device manager"   Click on the     
    "+" sign next to "display adapters", right click on the NVIDIA card in the sub menu, click on "uninstall", restart the computer and let Windows Reinstall the driver for your graphics card....  If that doesn't make the game work, update the driver to the latest version, go to the NVIDIA web site if you must..

    If that doesn't work, download and install the latest Windows XP service Pack, if you don't already have it installed...(service pack 3)


    If that doesn't work, try the following:

    Insert your Windows XP installation Cd, click on "START", open a "RUN" command, type:   sfc /scannow      click OK, let it run to check for corrupt/missing windows files......    If it finds and repairs some any files....Try running the game again



    If that doesn't work, try this:

    Right click on the icon that you use to start the game...  Select the compatibility tab, check the box that lets you run the game in a mode for a different Operating System, select Windows 2000, click "apply" and "ok", Exit out and take the game for another run.......If it doesn't work, try using the Windows 98 mode...

              hmmm..         Did you try the other things, besides compatibility modes?


              Try running the game itself in a lower resolution... If there are resolution options available before starting the game, try a lower res..   If there are none, try running your monitor in a lower resolution..


              If that doesn't work, power down the computer, open it up and disconnect the power from the CD/DVD drive...  Power on the computer again and try the game...  I'm wondering if reserving some power for the graphics card will help..   If this does work then your current power supply simply isn't putting out enough juice..
