You can't use the Windows logo key as a hotkey, they're reserved for the Windows system.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

Perhaps the goal was to use the Windows key in combination with another key as a hotkey.

I should have stated it this way, you can't use the Windows key IN A HOTKEY, instead of AS A HOTKEY. Windows reserves all Windows logo+some-other-key for the system, users can not use them.

I wasn't aware of this restriction. FWIW, I just tested with Win+Shift+X and it worked as I expected.
