Photopaint 8 which is in Corel Draw 8

I have been using Photopaint 8 for at least 15 years now, and I am very used to it.  It is still compatible with the Windows XP that I run.   But lately I have been getting this error, only when I try to rotate an object:  

PHOTOPAINT Condition #1000-MSEL-1192

A problem occurred accessing memory. Please refer to Techical Support Help

Sometimes it doesn't occur, but when it does, there doesn't seem to be anything I can change to fix it, including rebooting the computer.  that's the only time it happens, rotating an object, either with the mouse control button, or in the object command drop-down menu.  

Second question.  If I were to update my operating system to Windows 8, would this or other issues be more likely or less likely?  

Third question:  If I want to update my photo art program, what would be the most similar current software program to Photopaint 8, for a home user?   I don't need animation or a lot of other bells and whistles.
