As the database is to be stored on the hard disk, we strongly recommend you to choose a fast hard disk (ATA-100
or better if possible ) with a large capacity (20 gigabytes or more) formatted on a single FAT 32 partition.
Video card
In order to obtain the best 3D display results, you should choose a video card with 3D capabilities and a minimum
of 16MB of video memory.
The best performance will be reached if you have the possibility to display the 2D and 3D windows on two different
screens. To do that, you will have to equip each screen with a 16 Mb video card (or a dual video card).
Memory
Under Windows 98 SE we recommend a minimum of 128 Mo of SRAM memory (PC100).
Under Windows 2000 PRO or XP, we recommend a minimum of 256 Mo of SRAM memory (PC100).
