XP is not supported officially. Many people are still playing it with XP however, but we can not guarantee it working though.

If you are having problems with it many people here in the forums deviced workarounds for the issues that has been discovered.
 
Running XP and videocard Sapphire HD5450'
The only problem I have is the cursor. A black square i.s.o. an arrow.
Any body ideas how to solve that?
 
This issue happened when I set up streaming of the game through xsplit once upon a time. It only happened when I captured the game and disappeared when I captured the screen instead. I honestly have no idea what that means, but someone else might? Anyway, I would start by making sure your directx and graphic drivers are up to date.

Hey guys,

Did you manage to solve the issue? I just bought the game and everything seems to work except for the black square as mouse cursor. I downloaded the demo before I bought and there was no problem in the demo. I am currently running Vista.

Thanks
 
Start by updating your video driver. If that doesn't help post full details in the Support forum.
