First off the <disclaimer>... I don't used XP. I've installed WinGIMP on 98 and ME without problems on several machines however and from what I've seen of XP, though more like NT than 98, the GIMP and GTK installers should work (But we are talking Windo$e here so then again they may not). </disclaimer>

Did you first install gtk+-1.3.0-XXXXXXXX-setup.zip? (where XXXXXXXX is the build date like: 20030216)
These are the GTK+ run-time libraries. You have to install these libraries first to be able to use The Gimp. If not you will need to uninstall The GIMP, install GTK and then reinstall The GIMP.

You can download the current GTK and GIMP for Windo$e from Jernej Simoncic's homepage at http://www2.arnes.si/~sopjsimo/gimp/.
