NFS PU under XP Pro?

I just to install Need For Speed Porsche Unleashed and it is hanging when I try to start the program. I renamed gimme.dll checked that porsche.exe is set at win98 compatability. I keep getting the message that porsche.icd is causing the problem. Any solutions? Thanks, P. WinXP Pro SP1 Logitech 4.20 drivers DX9.0a GF 3 Ti 200 w/ 30.82 drivers

Interesting. It just so happens that I re-installed NFS PU last night on my computer and I also have WinXP PRO SP1 and DX9.0a. I simply installed the game and it worked without changing compatability modes or renaming any files. Have you tried running it without setting it at win98 compatability or renaming that .dll file? HTH, Chris

I got it to work by turning off the 98 compatability, that setting was turned on automatically during the installation. P.
