If you want to run Prophecy or Secret Ops in XP, simply right-click on your shortcut to the game, select Properties, tab over to Compatibility, and enable it. Setting it to Windows 95 or Windows 98 should be fine. Then run the game using that shortcut. It should work perfectly.

Whats happening with SO ?NO error messages?
Be more specific

Anyway Try WIN95/WIN98 compatimpility and try again....

Not necessarily: It should be added (for those who don't know) that this tactic is the first/easiest thing you can try if yer having trouble running it in XP. There's no *guarantee* that it'll work. If it don't, then there are more complicated methods one can attempt (which *also* are not guaranteed, unfortunately... )

I said that it should work, not that it would work. That statement is correct. Barring additional errors or conflicts, that is all that should be necessary in order to get Secret Ops to work in XP.
