Supreme Commander should have no particular problems running on Windows XP Professional. I have had it running on the same for 4 months with no OS-related problems. The game does require a lot from the system hardware. A fairly recent processor (I have a low-end dual-core Intel) and 1 or 2 Gb of RAM are a must. I'm not sure how critical the video card is. I have a GeForce 7600GT with 256Mb of video RAM and that seems to work fine at fairly high quality settings.
Before launch, they were touting it as having extra DirectX 10 goodies built into it for those with Vista and a DirectX 10 capable card. However, they did not end up incorporating that into the released copy. Perhaps the upcoming expansion/sequel called "Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance" (November 2007) will incorporate Direct X 10 features. If so, those will only be available to those who are running Microsoft Vista as XP does not offer Direct X 10 support. But the current Supreme Commander presents no limitations for those running XP Home or Professional. If anything, it probably works better in light of Vista's higher overhead hogging system resources.
