According to this, it supports OpenGL: http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/intel815/sb/CS-004083.htm

My google search also turned up a lot of people having issues with it and OpenGL, so I don't know what to tell you.  I'd suggest searching around and seeing if anybody has a solution: http://www.google.com/search?q=82815+opengl

Alright get the latest driver from here: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/scripts-df-external/download.aspx?url=/4665/eng/win2k_xpe67.exe&agr=N&ProductID=797&DwnldId=4665&strOSs=45&OSFullName=Windows*%20XP%20Home%20Edition&lang=eng

Then follow this:

6.1 UNINSTALLING THE SOFTWARE (WINDOWS XP INSTRUCTIONS)

1.  Click the "Start" button.

2.  Click the "Control Panel" icon.

3.  If the Control Panel is currently in Category View, click
    the "Switch to Classic View" link on the left side.

4.  Click the "Display" icon.  You should be in the "Display
    Properties" window.

5.  Click on the "Settings" tab.

6.  Click the "Advanced" button.

7.  Click the "Adapter" tab.

8.  Click on the "Properties" button.

9.  Click the "Driver" tab.

10. Click the "Uninstall" button.

11. A "Confirm Device Removal" window appears.  Click "OK",
    then click "Yes" when asked to restart the system.

I'd boot back into safe mode if possible.  This will probably prevent Windows from installing it's crap drivers that come with the XP installation.

3.2 MANUAL INSTALL FROM WEB DOWNLOAD (WINDOWS XP INSTRUCTIONS)

1.  Download "WIN2K_XP##.ZIP" from the Web, where "##" is the
    driver version.  You must unzip it using a utility such
    as WinZip* or PKZip*.  Transfer the files to a CD if you
    wish to install from the CD-ROM.

2.  Click the "Start" button.

3.  Click the "Control Panel" icon.

4.  If the Control Panel is currently in Category View, click
    the "Switch to Classic View" link on the left side.

5.  Click the "Display" icon.  You should be in the "Display
    Properties" window.

6.  Click on the "Settings" tab.

7.  Click the "Advanced" button.

8.  Click the "Adapter" tab.

9.  Click the "Properties" button.

10. Click on the "Driver" tab.

11. Click the "Update Driver..." button.

12. The "Hardware Update Wizard" window should now
    open.

13. Select the following option: "Install from a list or
    specific location (Advanced)".  Click the "Next" button.

14. Select the following option: "Don't search. I will choose
    the driver to install". Click the "Next" button.

15. Click the "Have Disk" button.  Click "Browse...".

16. Enter the directory where you unzipped WIN2K_XP##.ZIP and
    then enter the "Graphics" subdirectory. Next, enter the
    "WIN2000" subdirectory. At this point, the "I81XNT5.INF"
    file should be highlighted. Click "Open".
 
17. Click "OK". The "Select Device" screen should open and
    it may have several options to choose from. Select the
    display adapter that your system contains. Click "Next".
    If a warning appears saying that Windows cannot verify
    that this device driver is compatible with your
    hardware, click "Yes."
   
18. The driver should install. Click "Finish" when done.
   
19. Click "Close" and click "Yes" to reboot. The driver
    should now be loaded. To determine if the driver has
    been loaded correctly, refer to the Verifying
    Installation section below.

See if that works.
