+RickZA Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 I am battling a bit to get the Wherigo builder to work properly on my PC - think it has something to do with my (lack of) hardware / (ancient) Windows version... What are the minimum (hardware) requirements to run it? Quote
Ranger Fox Posted March 1, 2012 Posted March 1, 2012 For Groundspeak's Builder, I'd say the minimum requirements are the recommended Windows XP requirements. I don't know off the top of my head, but I think this would work: at least Windows XP SP2, 1.5 GHz single core CPU, and 1GB RAM. Basically, anything that was new four years ago should be able to run Groundspeak's Builder, so long as you don't have many processes (programs) hogging resources. Does this sound like an accurate estimate, everyone? Instead of guessing, though, it would be helpful to know what you are running. Quote
+RickZA Posted March 2, 2012 Author Posted March 2, 2012 Sounds like it is the RAM then - I only have 500MB... Everything else seems OK. Thanks for the info. Now I have a REALLY good excuse to upgrade! Quote
+sTeamTraen Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 500MB is really short for Windows XP, once you have a couple of applications open. My three-year-old XP PC was driving me nuts with 1GB when I had just Firefox (albeit with 15-20 tabs) and GSAK open. I got two 1-GB DDR2 modules off eBay for $15, thus doubling my memory, and now all is wonderful. Quote
