Welcome to InkscapeForum!
I can't answer your question, but have been searching for Inkscape minimum system requirements, with no success. Could someone please refer us to it? I promise to bookmark it and not lose it, lol!

No. See also bug #624091 in Inkscape: “can´t start inkscape on win 2000”. Install Inkscape 0.47 instead of the latest release on Windows 2000.
Hint: the bug report is No 2 in a simple google search for "inkscape" + the error message string.

Awesome. Before posting here I did a google search, but I didn't find anything. Old age is affecting my eyesight. Thanks a bunch!
