Windows XP PRO x64 question

Hi:
          I am using Windows XP PRO x64  with  SP2 (they didn't do a 3).  Will there be problems using the New Gimp 2.8.2 ? If so is there certain settings I need to adjust?  Or should I go for an older version of Gimp ?

I have been using Microsoft Paint for ever and a friend said , hey  go get Gimp and get Better results.

I loaded the new Gimp 2.8.2,   installed it and then when I closed the program,  my machine seemed to have locked up.     Any ideas ?   Pls help.

If need be I guess I can try running it in VirtualBox  with  Windows 7 x32   or  Ubuntu. That is if there is a major problem running 2.8.2   in  Win XP Pro x64.   

This is my machines set up;

OS Win Pro x64 Sp2 Browsers: Mozilla 9.0.1,  I.E.Ver.8.0.6001.18702 ,  Google Chrome 21.0.1180.60 m Adobe Flash 11
AMD Athlon ll x3 450 3.21GHz, 7.50 GB of ram. and NVIDIA GeForce 6200 Video Card.  Could it be I have some settings wrong for this card to work with Gimp 2.8.2 ?
