Bitdefender 2012 Cannot Be Installed On Your Operating System
[Solution available here]
http://forum.bitdefender.com/index.php?showtopic=29926
I am not able to install Bitdefender 2012 on Windows XP. I had Bitdefender 2009 installed which I uninstalled it using Bitdfender's UnInstall Tool.
Every time I try to install version 2012 I get the following error:
Bitdefender 2012 cannot be installed on your operating system
Please help!

Welcome to the forum.
Three questions:
1. Is your WinXp 32-bit or 64-bit?
2. What WinXP Service Pack (SP) level do you have installed?
3. Which BD product are you trying to install - Antivirus, Internet Security or Total Security?

Hello,
That message is due to the fact that you don't have Windows Service Pack 3 installed on your Windows XP. Update your Operating System as explained below then retry to install BitDefender. One of the system requirements is to have at least Windows Service Pack 3 installed if you are using Windows XP and Service Pack 1 for Windows 7.

I have exactly the same issue although I have SP3. I reported this issue on 6 August (ticket ID 201108061004446) and there's been no reaction from BD Technical Support since then.
May I count on any response from you please.0 -
I have just received a response from BD on my email box.

BitDefender Internet Security 2012 cannot be installed on Windows XP 64 bits period - I've just received an answer from Bit Support.
They recommend a downgrade to BitDefender 2011 .
I just suggest that they should announce this info on their product , with capital letters .0 -
