Because XP stands for eXtra Problems. It is another Microsoft attempt to hide useful functionality and break competitor's products: Nothing more. And as that was their goal they've done a stellar job.
Also it is quite likely that XP is not supported for the version of Oracle you have.
The only two half-way stable operating systems Microsoft has right now are WinNT 4 SP6 and patched Win2000.
