ok im no expert and i am totally up for ne1 elses suggestions but heres what i think plays them best...
650 up clock speed
32 ram mor eis better
hdd u only need the space to put it on .. (better playback doesnt skip as much)
thats all i can think off.. r u buying a p.c. or putting 1 together from crap of ur old p.c. or what? plz specify...
i repeat ne1 else i welcome to tell me im wrong because i probably am!!! but i think that is the spec... u can play on 300mhz ive done it b4 its just not great
and an ok graphics card.. i 4got.. 4mb?? i dunno bout that
again i repeat!!!! dont tell me off or definately follow these ne1 is probably better to say than me.. im just botred and got 1 hour to waste at college

I would say the minimum is 500Hz 16Mb RAM, but the minimum specs for DivX also depend heavily on the kind of player, the programs running in the background, playing directly from HD and so on.

for instance WMPlayer (and specially the 7.0 and up) need a lot of processorpower as to BSPlayer which is satisfied with very little

There are some sopecs i read concerning the Radlight-player

CPU: P233MMX
RAM:16MB RAM
Video: PCI 4MB CARD
Audio: SB-Comp.
OS: W9x/ME/XP/NT/2000
DirectX: 6.1 and higher

mind you these are publiced by the software-makers, so a little grain of salt is recommended.

So actually the best advise i can give you is try various players and stick to the one that does the trick for you

an important factor is THE DIVX QUALITY!!!

you may be able to play a 1 cd rip with an old 400mhz / 64mb ram or something alike and it should play without stuttering.

in case we are talking about a 2-3 cd rip with (much more) bitrate you should rather think of ~650+ mhz!

It works on a celeron 350, but only if you have a graphic-card that can do the resizing (very old cards don't have hardware-resizing). I also tried it in a celeron 300, but it didn't work well with high resolution (bigger than 640). On non-intel-cpus it seems that you need at least 450MHz. Maybe DivX works better with intel-cpus.
With a slow cpu it seems that "The playa" works best.
