Error while installing Bluestacks

B

Hi Guys

I have an old pc. It is running Windows XP SP 2. The specs are pretty old so I cannot install any other version on it, neither do I need it. Anyways I was installing Bluestacks in it and I am getting this error while installing- The given key was not present in the dictionary. What should I do?

Thanks

better mail bluestacks support and post on their fb page or switch to andy

By andy you meant Android OS, right? I remember using older versions of Bluestacks year ago flawlessly on this pc. Any other alternative for Bluestacks? I am having 1gb ram and P4 processor in the pc.

Thanks for replying. About a year ago Bluestack worked fine. Any idea from where I can get the older versions? Will go through the link that you have posted.

Thanks for replying but that is not true.

I tried installing it on my laptop with 1 gb ram, it said

Your PC must have 2GB of RAM.

Leave the idea of running android in windows. Virtualization requires little more high end hardware. Make bootable android-x86 pen drive and enjoy.

Try an older version. Say a version released like a year back.

I just need to run few apps and games so I guess an older Bluestack version will do it for me.
