All the help i could throw at you already been mentioned in this thread Koen. DOSBox is the best software I know about, VDMSound will allow you to play most DOS games in WinXP since the sound is usually the biggest problem... But it won't solve any speed problem which may arise, which DOSBox would solve.

If you can't run DOSBox decently, you should not run WinXP in the first place. This is only my personnal oppinion, but that's really what I think.

If you can you should try to get Win98 SE if you really can't get a faster computer. And I would recommend at least 1 gig mhz for DOSBox.
Isn't a 875 mhz machine enough to run winXP? I even run Half Life 2, and Doom 3 with this machine. So why can't a 'simpler' game like 'blood' ot 'doom' (yeah even doom!) be played using a dos emulator? Even ps2/gba emulators are working great.

I'm not going back to windows 98, because doom 3 doesn't support win98 anymore...

Thanks for that link xoopx! I'll try it out.
