You end up with enemy units bouncing all around like they were those rubber superballs, not to mention the game crashing every couple minutes. The only way I can imagine running it is to have a virtual machine running Windows 98, or a dual boot to Windows 98. It's sad that there's no patches out there to fix it for XP.
It's unfortunate when a once big name publisher goes out of business and since the games they made have stopped being supported there are no patches to allow continued use...
