Depending on the situation, the problem may be one of the following:

1) You're running Windows XP SP0 or SP1 and have not installed the 
latest WinPcap (http://www.winpcap.org)

2) You're running Windows XP SP2 in which case raw sockets have been 
intentionally disabled by Microsoft, thus rendering nmap (and other 
useful tools) useless :(

There was an update for SP1 (MS05-019) that also disabled raw TCP sockets.

I'm not entirely sure about the situation with 2000 and 2003, so if 
you're running one of those, someone else may be able to enlighten you 
to possible problems.

Best advice I can give (although a little suspicious of a 13 year old's 
intention of using nmap): install a Linux or Unix operating system 
somewhere and run nmap from that.
