    It's almost certain that it's a driver problem, most likely that high powered graphics card. You could check the computer maker's website to see if a 32 bit driver for XP exists but don't hold your breath.

    A better bet would be to install a VM in Win 7 and install XP in the VM. You could use VMWare Player or VirtualBox, both are highly capable.
