A member of my family has a machine under Windows XP SP2. I tried to upgrade it to SP3 a few times in the past, but the upgrade failed. Moving to a newer OS is not an option either.

Jan 18, 2019 Stupidly agreed to install latest Skype update (to version 7.6) and it has totally killed my Windows XP Service Pack 3 computer. The computer is experiencing the following issues: Skype 7.6 cannot render its windows properly - the Skype window would not repaint itself, only re-draws itself when you move your mouse over the window area.

Recently, the person updated Skype to the newest version, and Skype is not working any longer, showing the following error:

Regardless if you have SP3 as long as your Internet Explorer is out of date, you will not be able to download or use Skype properly on your device.
Please make sure you meet the system requirements for you to continue using Skype.

Hi CarlZawadiuk,
What do you mean by 'no matter which version I try'?
Did you mean the Skype version or Internet Explorer version?
Also, which specific site were you redirected to?
Kindly provide more information regarding your inquiry and which URL were you asking for?
I will wait for your response.

It is no longer possible to install Skype on Windows XP or Vista computers. The only Skype version that is working with Windows XP/Vista is the classic Skype version 7.36.0.150.
Unfortunately, all download links to classic Skype were recently removed from Skype/Microsoft download servers.

I have that version installed and I have Explorer 8.0.6001.18702IC installed, but not open and Skype still cries that 'Sorry, we couldn't connect to Skype'. It didn't even get to the point where my MS Firewall would ask me to unblock it (I deleted the Skype option according to Skype's instructions).
This is very annoying, since Skype worked the last time I used it (a couple of months ago) and I need to make this call desperately.
