Then your PC has major problems. If something is causing crashes, its generally a problem with the PC, specifically some sort of hardware conflict with the software/
RTS game, style Civ

Don't base an entire assumption off one game...
I've ran a couple of DOS games on XP just fine.

Actually, Swein probably isn't far off the mark.
Something I've been noticing recently is that older games seem to perform progressively worse as computers get newer. Civ I is one of the worst--I played that one all the way from its initial release up until a year ago, and that one has been steadily getting slower and crankier as I upgrade my hardware.

Could be, but Starcraft doesn't yet qualify as 'old' in my book, because I think it's still supported by Blizzard. They still give tech support if you have problems with it in Vista.
Granted, DOS, 16-bit Windows and some specific Win98 can give problems, but there isn't an old game that I can't get to work on XP (my Vista machines arrives today so I'll give a check in the coming weeks). Though I use DOSBox for the Dos games obviously.
Back on topic: Try the Seven Kingdoms serie if you can find it or when it's released.
