I have made a game and can run it in windows 9x. but when I run the same exe in windows xp it runs very sluggish at the parts when I use sprite rotate and sprite move commands. Has anyone else run into this problem? Is there a code solution or a patch for XP? please help!

My game's screen rate dropped 50%.
Yet other games run just as well...

Every game I've run on my XP system is at least 200% faster than when I had Win98SE on it. I'm guessing it's a video card issue under XP. I have an ATI Radeon 9500 (non-pro) with the latest Catalyst 3.8 drivers. If you want to post your EXE I can tell you my framerate.
