old hardware does not like newer os versions

Yours is a bit of a redundant comment, then right?

In the context of what i was replying to, it made more sense to say the hardware had a problem with the software.

It's technically true either way, though

But yes, it would have made more sense to say the software doesn't play ball with the old hardware.

But since it's intended to be like that, it doesn't really matter how i say it. The point still gets across.
