Yeah was just wondering, since my laptop broke, but I plan on getting a better ### than the ### that broke, until now I'm stuck with xp and can't download roblox, does that mean it doesn't work? and if so is there any way I can fix this? Please respond, -Ollie

If you're stuck on a Windows XP Computer then you're out of luck: ROBlox has officially dropped support for XP (Although they said that Studio will NOT work on Windows XP)

yes but you should go get mint/ubuntu linux or windows 7, roblox works nicely on all of those.

Windows 7 should work just fine and if you need something resource light then try Lubuntu or an addon for 7 to make it lightweight.

You really shouldn't be using XP, it's trash, unstable in quite a few ways, and has vulnerabilities everywhere.


TL;DR : Yes it works, but windows xp is not an OS you should be using anymore, get something new.

What are the specs of this system anyhow?

do windows key and R and type in that box MSINFO32.EXE and press enter and it'll tell you what's inside.

Vista was a good OS imo.

I left windows completely, I moved over to ubuntu linux and all of my windows apps (games, tools, and other stuff including roblox) all work pretty well.

Hi,

Windows XP sadly ended support along with ROBLOX.
So i recommended installing a operating system which still can let you play ROBLOX on it.

But in another words: If you still wish to try to get ROBLOX to work on XP. Try a Tool which tricks the compatible operating systems. aka XP acting like Windows 7 for example.

Hi again,

You could use either imgur or a different image sharing website to show
your specs for the Windows XP computer.

I have an old Windows XP computer (I don't use it for ROBLOX of course) that I was able to get it to play small games. I might be able to upgrade it to 4GB and see how it performs.

Hi again,

Windows vista is no longer supported and roblox may will also drop support for vista too.
I now recommend upgrading to Windows 7, 8 or 10.

" I might be able to upgrade it to 4GB RAM and see how it performs"

not much better, if any better at all.

You see, adding memory (memory is RAM) will only help if the program you use actually allocates it, roblox only uses around 800 MB, meaning adding more memory will not help.

I'm using Vista right now, And I have no viruses because I'm not an idiot and I have AdBlock and Malwarebytes. It also works for Roblox.
