This may be a stupid questions.

I know the min system req. is Windows Vista 32-bit.

I am still using Win XP 32-bit, and I played back in closed beta.

Back then, I had to restart the game every 3 games to avoid memory leak that slows down the game.

I have GeForces 8800 GTS ( G92 GPU ), 4GB ( 3 under windows XP ) memory, and 3.2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo CPU.

I wonder if anyone is using Win XP and able to play the game.

Thx

I installed the game, and it runs okay.

It doesn't need to restart every few games like before, so I guess it's fixed.

But I still have problem when closing the game, it just hangs and not closes.

You'll be able to play on low settings.

I am on lowest setting, and that is all I need.

BTW, if I click Log Out, and then Cancel on log in screen, I won't get hang up when closing the game.

your real problem will be with video drivers. Hardware companies only make sure XP compatible drivers are minimally good these days. All focus is on Win7/Win8 now.

I am waiting for Windows 8.1 Pro, and I will get it few months after it is released.

Hopefully bugs / glitches should have been reported or even fixed by then.

I have a dual boot system with MWO on both sides. WHile I play mostly under win 7 it will run on just short of full Medium settings on the XP32 bit Os.. I dunno if I was lucky or what, but I started play in November last and never had the memory leak bug affect me.
