Could be old drivers on the XP computer. Can you post the Latest.log file from both systems, after launching the game and exiting immediately?

C:\Oolite\oolite.app\Logs

or

C:\Program Files\Oolite\oolite.app\Logs

depending on install.

I’m no expert so I’m not going to be much help. One of the minds may assist.

A thought…what GPU are you using. If ATI, then driver update may help.
There's a thread somewhere on it.

Ok, that's weird, there should be some files, and dirs for GNUstep, Resources, Logs and (if you saved a game) oolite-saves. Try running the game once more, then exit and take another look.
Most games have some sort of paddling-pool-and-water-wings beginning to ease you in: Oolite takes the rather more Darwinian approach of heaving you straight into the ocean, often with a brick or two in your pockets for luck. ~ Disembodied
