InfoBase Recommended System Requirements

Hardware Requirements
A Pentium 166MHZ PC with 64 Megs of RAM and multimedia capabilities is the minimum platform that has been successfully tested; however, many factors such as network connections and system settings may hamper performance. For this reason, the recommended minimum is 128 Megs of RAM. A high speed Internet connection is also necessary for adequate performance when viewing the multimedia training presentations. Please note that some firewalls may filter Flash code that may prevent you from viewing the Flash training presentations.

Application Software Requirements
The InfoBase has been tested on a variety of Windows operating systems including Windows 95, 98, ME, and 2000. A standard Web Browser, such as Internet Explorer (IE) 4.0 or Netscape 4.7 or above, is required. IE 5.5 is recommended. Two freely available standard "browser plug-ins" are also required. The Adobe Acrobat Reader plug-in, version 4.0 or higher is required for viewing reference documents and the Macromedia Flash Plug-in, version 4.0 or higher, is required for the training presentations. An alternative to the Flash Plug-in that may be used to view the training presentations is also available. This player option, Apple Quick Time Player version 5.0, may provide more stability on older machines. It also allows better end-user control with its enhanced "slider bar" presentation controller. Please note that some firewalls may restrict the usage of these plug-ins. Please visit the Software Installers page to obtain needed software.
