I just got my hands on Illustrator 8.0.1 and installed it yesterday. It seemed to install ok but I'm having difficulties getting it to start. I even tried reinstalling. Same thing happens.

I know this is a very old version of Illustrator (but it's all I have), I noticed that there is some sort of script to install for Windows NT users- could this be a compatibility issue as I am on XP (Home and I think I installed Service Pack 2 IIRC)?
I know there a few folks on here who have a fair bit of experience with Illustrator, so I'm wondering if anyone could please offer a bit of advice with getting it going. Thanks in advance for any advice and assistance!
