Note 1:
Windows 2000 - This operating system is no longer supported by Microsoft, so continued operation can't be guaranteed.
Note 2: The minimum level depends
on your operating system requirements. For example XP will work with 512 MBytes, Vista should have at least 1GByte. If your computer is suitable for the specified operating system then it should be fine with seaPro - More memory is better.
Most modern computer\laptops will meet the specifications
for all of the above.
Note:3 Most laptops don't have a serial port or printer port - order
the USB dongle option and add a USB/serial converter if GPS input required. Alternatively use TCP/IP input (via converter)
Note 4: At 1024x 600 resolution (as used on Netbooks) the important dialogs will operate correctly, some advanced features may require slight scrolling.
*Whichever operating system is being used, its presumed that the latest service packs have been applied plus any other appropriate updates/patches (for XP this means SP3 and for Vista SP2).
Note 5: seaPro is designed for 32 bit operating systems, it will work under a 64 bit version, you may need to download the latest security dongle driver.
Generally using 64 bit may make it difficult to use other pieces of hardware such as older printers, USB devices etc., that don't have a 64 bit driver. If you have less than 4GBytes of memory there is no advantage in using 64 bit for most users, in fact your system may well run slightly slower! |
