Yup, second BBrown's link.
Two possibilities:
If your game wasn't developed to work on Windows XP then it won't find the functions it's expecting in the DLL file mentioned. I.E. If it's expecting Vista. Check the system requirements specify that Windows XP is supported.
Or, of it was developed for Widows XP then it's likely that some other application has since replaced Windows XP's default version of the DLL with a newer one. I think Firefox did this at one point. In that case you'll need to restore the original version of the DLL distributed with Window XP as standard as described in BBrown's link.
It's pretty techy stuff and so only attempt this if you are comfortable and understand what's going on. Welcome to DLL hell!
