I have a GPU: RADEON 9600.
I think it should be able to run UFO:AI
Am I wrong?
Sorry I do not know much about GPU and Grafik stuff :/

Thank you for your reply!!!

It mean it is a software renderer.
You must install a driver for your card, and it must contain an opengl driver.

First THANKS!

Your Link takes me to this page:
http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/windows/Legacy/Pages/radeonaiw_xp.aspx?type=2.4.1&product=2.4.1.3.13&lang=English

If I try to install the driver Windows tells me to stop(driver is NOT Windows compatibel)  ???

No Problem I searcht for the latest version:
http://www.chip.de/downloads/ATI-Catalyst-Suite-fuer-XP-32-Bit_13006507.html

I installed it. No trubel.

But UFO:AI still does not work  :'(

still not the real amd drivers. maybe they have an option for this in the control panel of the driver - i don't know. i heard about nvidia game profiles - maybe amd has the same.

A screenshot could help. Anyway you can try disabling GLSL shaders in video options menu.

Ufoconsole.log can say more info about the problem at you. But if the game starts then immediately shuts down it's most probably incompatible videocard driver. Make sure you are using the drivers from your vendor (Forceware in case of NVidia, Catalyst in case of ATI/AMD), the default driver which is in Windows doesn't provide the OpenGL support we need.
