In downloading XBMC it will not allow me to run it Huh

is there any other way to do this or do I need to upgrade my Windows, thanks

Sorry but, XP support was dropped a while back. Microsoft no longer supoorts it. Either upgrade Windows to 7/8 or switch to Linux.

the wiki page for Windows installs (http://kodi.wiki/view/Windows) still says:
"OS minimum to run XBMC: Windows Vista."

So if that is no longer true, it would be great if someone with a wiki login could fix it.

And where is that not true?

Vista is still valid, but if someone is upgrading why not just go to Windows 7/8? I guess my original statement could be confusing.

Thanks to all for your replies, I will upgrade my Windows accordingly

In fairness, XP was an upgrade to Vista for a lot of people :D

Vista sucked so bad that falling back to XP was an update! Smile

The last Frodo (12.3, from December 2013) is an option that works on xp, no?
That might be a short-term solution.
Another option - run OpenElec from a usb stick.

Pretty much the reason I didn't even mention upgrading to Vista. That and the various odd issues Kodi has had with Vista in the past.
