Mechwarrior 4 and XP Pro??

Has anyone gotten Microsoft's Mechwarrior 4 to run on XP Pro? Every time I load it, I try launching it for the first time, and it hangs or crashes hard back to the desktop. I've tried running the app in COmpatibility Mode as well, with no success... either it just continues to hang, or if I try running it in Win95 mode I get an error that a .DLL is missing... Just wondering if this game has issues with XP or if it's my machine. Every other game I've run and loaded seems to be fine- it's just MW4. Thanks!

What video card are you using?

Are your video drivers certified?

I'm using a GeForce 4 card, with drivers that came with the card. It works with every other game I have, including Mechwarrior 4: Mercenaries (go figure that).

I just reloaded Windows XP yesterday as a matter of fact, so I might just try reinstalling it now to see what happens.
