Hex editors work fine in WinXP.

If you mean trainers that edit games' memory space, then yes, cracks that worked in 9x most likely won't work in XP.

in a modern operating system with protected memory, one program cannot write to another program's memory space. this prevents out of control apps from taking down other apps and/or the OS itself.

This behavior is fundamental to the operation of the OS, you cannot disable it.... I'm sure with some patience you could rewrite the program to work in a way you want, but I have a feeling thats no the answer you wanted :)

To do what you want you'd pretty much have to write a device driver, because no application has access to the host's entire physical memory space.
