I hope I can re-install the old version of BlueStacks.

How much RAM do you have? This author gives his opinion on "What's a Perfect Computer to Run Bluestacks Without Error" http://bluestackstutorial.com/2015/06/perfect-computer-to-run-bluestacks-without-error/ I'm sure you already know about all this, but is your graphics driver up to date? http://bluestackstutorial.com/2015/04/update-graphics-driver-of-windows-7/ Also, I've read in some places that when a person installs a new version of Bluestacks without uninstalling the older version, they run into some problems. I uninstalled Bluestacks after I noticed a slowdown in my PC's performance. I didn't know all the places Bluestacks stored files on my PC. Some files are hidden. This video tutorial helped me to completely uninstall Bluestacks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQf4pYeJRC0

Glad the old version still works. I have a Toshiba Satellite that came with Windows 7. It has a Core i3 processor.
