Please help me install RPG Maker XP

I am running Windows XP on a 6 year old Dell laptop that has very little graphics power, so I figure that RPG Maker XP is the proper version for me (please correct me if I'm wrong!).



I have downloaded the RPG Maker XP file from the downloads section here. 

I unzip it.  Then I click the Setup icon and then Install RPG Maker XP.  I accept licensing agreement.  It installs, tells me it completed and I select Finish. 

Then I go to my start menu and open Program RPG Maker XP.  I get the following Error Message:  "This application has failed to start because rgss102e.dll was not found.  Re-installing the application may fix this problem." 

I have uninstalled and reinstalled it.  I have also installed>repair installation'd it.  Same error every time.

Help?

You didn't install the rtp. You need to do that.

Yup, I can be kind of dense like that.  Thanks for the suggestions.  Looks like I've got it going now.
