Sorry I wasn't clearer--did you install the Vista/W7 version or the "classic" version of v2008 from the old versions page (i.e., from the link in my last post)? The newer Vista/W7 version would likely act just like v2010 as it is the same but without the newer features. The "classic" version is the one that's been out and around for a couple years now and runs pretty much trouble free on XP. The latter is the one I intended to suggest you try. Problem solving here will depend on which on you installed. Sorry again for not being clear about that before suggesting you try v2008.
