When booting:

Try booting into VGA mode and see if the problem persists, then you will have a better idea if it's a display driver or not .

How do you make a WinXP bootable USB drive?
I've seen a bunch of instruction here on ServerFault but they are specific to Vista or Linux, so again - I'm using WinXP . I've also tried unetbootin, but that doesn't work with Windows

How should I implement these 64-bit interlocked functions on WinXP? Of course I can use full mutex, but I think it's needlessly heavyweight for this task. There must be some better way.

If you really think a critical section is too heavy weight, read up on memory barriers
No need... .
If you insist, your best bet is to use a critical section to make sure you get the barriers right .
This is much more complex than you think.
You shouldn't.

What would be good options for slowing down games in WinXP ? I like, from time to time, to play an older game; in this case Betrayal in Antara; but it runs too fast. Bad engine, I guess.
Any ideas ?

Answer Snippets (Read the full thread at superuser):
Running it in a virtual PC, for instance just run a virtiualized Win98 or even 3.1
Or use an emulator ( like DosBox ) that simulates a computer that suits the game
And check Dosgames.com for some hints to get a normal performance out of your old games... .
