I have a program source code that was written in I think Delphi 4. Running the exe now under XP it seems to introduce data file corruption issues and a few other things under XP

XP (as Win2K and NT before) are not so lazy as Win95/98 was. So some WinAPI functions that runs under W95/98 without error, returns errors on Win XP, e.g. 89="wrong parameter". If the program use such function without testing the result, than it might crash.
I have some programs compiled with D4 running under XP, so I dont assume that the compiler itself is the problem.
So try to debug the program under xp and see what happen.
