Windows Vista

For Windows Vista, the Windows Experience Index (WEI) is a useful measure of

hardware level. The WEI is accessible from Computer > Properties, or from Control

Panel > System.

The recommended typical hardware requirements for the PC are:

WEI score of at least 3 in the 'Graphics; Desktop performance for Windows Aero'

category.

Overall WEI score of at least 3 as recommended by Microsoft.

At least one USB 2.0 port

30 megabytes (MB) of free disk space.

Computer screen for use with the DisplayLink device, if it is not integrated.

Network access for software downloads, or access to a CD-ROM drive.

If the PC specification is below this, performance will be lower (or CPU loading higher

than acceptable).
