Help Need Help Running Stacks

Long story short was given this old lap top.

Specs Toshiba Intel Celeron processor CPU 900 2.20ghz 2 GB of Ram Win7

I cant run the latest version of stacks. It wont get past the loading engine part. Tried downloading a slightly older version and it got as far as initializing before it stopped. Its been initializing for 14 hrs now. Does any guru know which version i can actually get to run. Everytime I check the system its says its takin 100% of the cpu and ram and yet does nothing. I have a feeling win7 is the root nut maybe im wrong.
BTW I completely wiped the computer then installed the windows gave to me. I only got this laptop to run stacks and do a few small other things. If any gurus could help me out or at least point me in the right direction i would gretly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Which runs under Windows, yes? I think the problem couid be your laptop's Celeron processor, I believe those don't support virtualization, specifically VT-x. Bluestacks is basically an Android virtual machine, and hardware virtualization support is required in the laptop's CPU to make it work.

There's not a lot can do about it, apart from changing to a computer that does support VT-x. It might be worth checking in the laptop's BIOS, just to check if settings for VT-x are there or not.
