Great timing as well.

Last Wednesday I downgraded from Vista to XP. If ROBLOX don't make XP compatible now I'm going to be pretty angry.

Windows 7 work great.

XP is outdated to hell as it only supports Directx 9.

Roblox might have updated their Directx requirements.

Windows XP Is Outdated and with roblox making future update's Its Becoming more hard to work with XP and or not wanting to deal with XP due to the fact that If you buy a brand new PC you cant get XP On it from I know of,I Currently use Windows 7 On my laptop and use Vista on my Desktop they both work great and Are a lot more polished in my Opinion.

Hope That Helps :P

In 2009, ROBLOX recommended NOT using a XP computer to play ROBLOX. So this has been around for a while now.

You should try xp
Vista = Gaming work
Windows 7 = Mostly work .But when gaming it can be terrible .Or great
Xp= Gaming .Hard to work on it.

XP works without any problems, unless you have a bad computer.
7 is more or less the same; it just uses a little more memory.
Vista is just terrible. I got a computer with Vista last year, and it locked up in a matter of weeks. I know Vista caused it.
I personally think Roblox should keep compatibility with XP, as it is still widely used. Trust Microsoft to abandon it, huh?

Finally. Windows 7 is the way to go. DX11 FTW. It's about time companies stopped supporting the outdated DX9 and XP.

Vista is great on my laptop if it breaks your computer or if 7 does you just have a cheap fake or badly constructed computer or laptop.
I have used all 3.
I used windows 7 before I got my own laptop
I used XP in my school. (I just completed my last year.)
XP= takes ages to load anything, all software is seriously outdated I give it 3/10 at least it works.
Vista= much better and faster than xp though occasionally lags on big games and it allows most software to be downloaded. I give it 7.5/10 major improvement.
Windows 7= amazing virtually no lag lets you download anything and if anyone called this outdated they have never touched a windows XP computer. I give it a 9/10 I can't wait until the next Windows.

WRONG! XP is the FASTEST os microsoft has ever made and my 13 computer books agree that xp is best if you are looking for speed.
if you want convenience then go vista if you want flashy graphics go 7
