Yes, Baldur's Gate 2 will work with Windows XP. Just make sure you have the latest version of the game and you'll be fine. If the version you have is not the latest, you can download the appropriate patch from Bioware.

If you install Throne of Bhaal, there's a well-known bug that prevent NPCs from talking to you, but it was fixed in the first official Throne of Bhaal patch. If you install Throne of Bhaal after installing Shadows of Amn, you don't need to apply any Shadows of Amn patches.

Have fun!

Woohooo! Another innocent mind will soon be corrupted by the wonderfully addicting game! Hooray! :D

Whenever in doubt always patch first. That is why patches are around.
