Immediately minimizing to desktop

http://forums.steampowered.com/forum....php?t=1331757

When I start the game, it immediately minimizes to desktop. If I'm lucky I can hear some of the intro videos' sounds.

I have not tried playing with DXWnd because it sucks ass. I managed to move the window (somehow) the first time I tried it and then it went from bad to worse. It's just not good. Besides, I like playing stuff like this in fullscreen :P

Anyway, the same thing happens with the demo I downloaded from here, and:
:
Minimum requirements: Pentium-120, Windows 95, 16MB RAM, DirectX drivers.
This demo is not compatible with Windows XP. There is no Macintosh version for this game.
So I'm kind of not sure if the version I have it supposed to work on XP or not..? I mean, it says it is on the Steam Store page ("Supported OS: A 100% Windows 2000/XP-compatible computer system (only)"), but it has the exact same problem as a version that clearly says it doesn't.


I'm using Windows XP Home Edition (32-bit)
Graphics card: Radeon HD 4850
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 2.40GHz (copied from the Device Manager :P)

I've tried setting Oddworld to one core but it doesn't change anything.


Please help, or at least tell me where else to go for help. Thanks!
