Has anyone been able to get the old M&M World Of Xeen to
work on XP. I know that this one is quite old, but I
still enjoy it's play value. Any tips to make it work on
XP would be appreciated.

I've played several of this series on XP but not that one. A quick search
on google brought me to a nice site on the game:

Although they don't state that they'v used the game on XP, they have some
XP references in their help section. One of the links goes to this XP
article:

Using Program Compatibility Mode

And this article dealing with general issues of older games running in XP:
