How to Install HP Quickplay 3.0 in Windows XP

They say that Quickplay 3 is Vista only compatible, but somehow I found a way to install Quickplay 3.0 in Windows XP with just simple steps. I have tried this on my HP Pavilion dv2715nr Windows XP SP3 Installed.

It is possible to install HP Quickplay 3 in Windows XP following the steps below:

  1. Download Quickplay Registry fix [ DOWNLOAD ] to get rid of Not Authorized Machine error
  2. Download HP Quickplay 3 [ DOWNLOAD v3.63 ] you can also download Quickplay 3.7 but I don’t have the link yet.
  3. Extract the downloaded file ( HP-QuickPlay.exe ) to C:\SWSetup\QP3 using winrar.
  4. Download and Extract setup.inx file into C:\SWSetup\QP3 [ DOWNLOAD setup.inx ]
  5. Run HP Quickplay setup.exe and wait for the installation to complete.
  6. (Optional) edit registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Cyberlink > Quickplay: then change version to 3.0

* If you followed the Optional Step above you’ll see your Quickplay Version is 3.0 otherwise it will be version 2.3 since the setup.inx was taken from Quickplay 2.3 version.
