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

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.

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

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.

bluestacks also requires 2GB ram minimum.

Thanks for replying but that is not true.

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

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

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.
