Cant get Red Alert 2 To work!

I've been trying to get this game to work yesterday for quiet some hours....

The installation goes perfect,
no errors.

but as soon as I start the game
I see the Red Alert start up screen...the whole screen goes black for 1 sec and I'm back to desktop....

now I really tried everything on the internet to make it work
patched it up, installed the game with both CD's
tried every compability (95, 98/Me, win2000)
no luck...I red that SP2 caused problems but my windows XP pro doesnt contain any updates nor service packs...

I was so much into picking a old game back to the surface to conquer the whole bunch...but my guess is that there is no way to get it work on my current rig.
dammit
