Default I can't play YR

The people on GameFAQs won't help me, so I'll ask here.
Everytime I start YR, it just opens and closes. No loading screen, no error, it just closes before it even opens. Best Buy won't take it back so I don't know what to do. Any help?

Computer specs:
OS: Windows XP
GFX Card: S3 Graphics ProSavageDDR
GHz: 2.00
RAM: 112MB
HDD Space: 7.5GB (With YR installed)

Thanks.

Go to the RA2 directory. For each EXE Right click on it, go to properties then click compatibility. Select "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" then select Win98/ME. Click OK and repeat for the others.

XP == evil
I don't run it (for obvious reasons), but I that'd be my first guess. Look at RADEN for help with YR/XP issues. Also check whether there's any stuff in your folder that doesn't belong there, and if nothing helps, ph33r the evil reinstalling.

EDIT: Damn thee, Kravvitz! Thou shalt not post while I read other tabs.
