Minecraft Forums

So I've been a minecraft fan all my life. It's one of those classics which I will never forget. So I decided to download it again. Got the game, chose the version and waited for the files to be downloaded. After waiting for a while, the launcher closed. I thought this was normal and I was correct. Another window popped up. After a couple of seconds, the MOJANG logo popped up. I was expecting to see the main menu but instead the window closed and opened the launcher again with one crash report and one game output (dunno if they're the same thing). So i was hoping if anyone could help me. Here are the crash report and the game output.

java.lang.OutOfMemoryError

You ran out of memory, how much is installed on this machine? Vanilla Minecraft doesn't need more than a gig or two to run.

My PC has 1 gb of usable ram.

That is below the minimum requirements:

https://help.mojang.com/customer/en/portal/articles/325948-minecraft-system-requirements

Isn't there a way to play with 1 gb? I could play with 1 gb back in windows xp. Also for some reason the same error happens when i go on another PC which has more ram than the first pc.

Those requirements are called "minimum" for a reason.

Yes friend. I understand "minimum". Im asking whether there is something i can do about it.

Sure, get a computer that meets those requirements.
