## Overview This reference lists the minimum and recommended PC specifications for LDPlayer 4 and LDPlayer 9. The figures are the publisher’s published requirements. We have not tested every configuration. If your PC falls below the minimum, LDPlayer may not run well.
## How to read these tables
The minimum table lists the lowest specifications the publisher gives for each version. If your PC falls below the minimum, LDPlayer may not run well, according to the publisher. The recommended table lists the specifications the publisher suggests for demanding games. Use that column when you plan to run several instances or heavy games. Requirements change between versions, so check the table for the version you install.

## Checking your PC
To compare your PC with these tables, note the processor model, installed RAM, graphics card, and free space on the drive you plan to use. How to find the configuration information of your PC explains how to read these values. Virtualization is separate from these numbers, so check it in the BIOS or UEFI settings as described below.
## Before you install If virtualization is disabled on your PC, enable it in the BIOS or UEFI settings first. See How to enable VT.
Security note: Windows XP and Windows 7 no longer receive standard security updates from Microsoft. Running an emulator on an unsupported Windows version adds risk to the whole PC. Move to a Windows version that Microsoft still supports before you install.
## Notes and Troubleshooting
- The publisher lists a 36 GB disk requirement. Confirm the free space on your drive before you install.
- If your PC meets the minimum but runs slowly, see Setting Up Your PC and LDPlayer for Higher FPS and Graphics Quality.
- Requirements change between versions. Check the version you plan to install.
## Common mistakes
- Checking only the processor. Graphics support, RAM, and free disk space also decide whether LDPlayer runs well.
- Checking the wrong drive. Measure free space on the drive that holds the LDPlayer folder.
- Skipping virtualization. If VT is off in the BIOS, enable it first. See How to enable VT.
- Mixing up the two versions. The LDPlayer 4 and LDPlayer 9 columns differ. Check the column for the version you install.
