Default Mech Warrior 3

I can't get MW3 to work in Windows XP. It locks up after I start a new
campaign game. I have tried changing the settings in the compatibility tab
to reflect windows 98 but it doesn't help. If anyone has any information
that could help me out I'd appreciate it, this is a great old game and I'd
like to be able to play it again.
Thanks.
