I burned an install of Win32 UQM to a CD and tried it on an XP Pro machine; it worked fine.
Are *all* oggs messed up, or just the voices?

Have you try downloading the latest drivers for your sound card? That could be what's causing the sound distortion. Some of the bulit-in W2K sound drivers don't work well with some sound cards.

Key jamming is a hardware issue. Period. If you do not believe this, write a little SDL program that dumps key events at your screen, and start jamming the buttons you want. Eventually, strange things will start to occur - key downs will be ignored (the traditional 'key jam'), or phantom 'key ups' will occur (this has always been compensated for in the input code, in all incarnations). If your keyboard hardware has changed, which keys jam will change. If your OS changes, how the OS will react to an overloaded keyboard will change.
It is theoretically possible that other things are going on, but unless you actually tell us what your relevant key configuration is -- that is, which keys worked in 0.2 and don't work in 0.3, "it doesn't work, shock, horror" isn't going to help much.
In fact, I'm more than slightly inclined to think that either your keyconfig has changed, or you just weren't using the tactics that produced the jam in 0.2. Alternatively, if your keys aren't working because, say, the Control key doesn't blast you off the planet anymore, then that's because the default key configuration has changed some.
And, er, the *entire game* is not a zip file. The *content* is in three zip files if you have a full install, to reduce external fragmentation on the disk drive. The binary and documentation should all be sitting uncompressed in the base directory.
(Trivial example of "something else going on": Try mapping Alt to fire, Tab to Special, and then playing the Orz and launching space marines.)
