Default Grand Prix 4 not working with WinXP

Can anyone confirm if their copy of Grand Prix 4 (Geoff Crammond game) works ok with WinXP Pro?

The game appears to just crash out for no reason during play. My mate has no other problems with any other game.

Cheers

GP4 was full of bugs which afaik were never fixed (some sort of legal dispute over rights etc between Crammond and the publisher stopped them from ever appearing). I've had it working on XP Pro, and it didn't seem any less stable that it did on Xp home or even Win98SE. Kept crashing to the desktop for me on all flavours of os. Gave up trying to play it in the end...

I have it and wasn't impressed with it anyway Luckily I have Grand prix legends so I'm just playing that all of the time instead

I tried GP3 on a mates pc and that seemed much better than GP4

Yep never worked properly under XP, always crashes to the desktop, RAM related bugs.
