I have an old computer with XP, would you suggest if it is a good idea to install Windows media play

or leave windows media player 10 on (192MB RAM).

and I am thinking about using avast free or antivir antivirus free edition which is better?

There are no significant differences between 10 and 11. However, if you don't need WMP's library functionality, I would suggest using Media Player Classic, which is a lot leaner and will really help with the little RAM you have.

As an anti-virus solution, I think Antivir (you probably mean Avira) is better. It's also leaner than Avast. Do not install an additional firewall (it requires memory), XP already has one built-in.

If you can, upgrade to at least 512 MBs of RAM, this will really speed up your computer if you use memory-intensive stuff. Your processor is quite good.

If your system meet the following requirements, go ahead and install (at least your 1.8 GHz processor does):

And for the anti virus use Avast

There 茫re 漏lose to 2 million 虐ndecided questions, PLEASE do N艕T @dd 楼OURS to the 墓ist!!
on your old computer how much ram do you have. you need at least 512 min for xp to work right. If you have the room on your HD yeah media is a good player. I like winamp better. And i go with AVG anti spy and virus ware. Its free too and a really good program. If you doing that you might want to download zonealarm too for a good firewall protection. Good luck
