2.6. What versions of Windows is EstiMate compatible with?

Q:  What versions of Windows is EstiMate compatible with, and what are the minimum system requirements?

 

A:  EstiMate is only certified for use on Windows XP and Windows Vista.

It should also work on Windows Server 2003, and 2008, but normally only the Multi-User Server portion of EstiMate 2 is what gets installed on to the server computer.

EstiMate will not run on Windows 9x, NT, ME, or 2000. 

 

EstiMate is not very resource intensive, and any modern computer should run it without a problem.  However for optimal performance we recommend:

• 1 GHz 32-bit (x86) or 64-bit (x64) processor

• 512 MB of system memory

• 200 MB of available free hard drive space

• CD-ROM 

• Internet access
  

If you are also going to run the EstiMate Multi-User Server then in addition to the above you should have:

• A small office or home network setup.

• Wired or Wireless connections from each computer to the network.
  

If the computer you will be running the Multi-User Server on is a "server computer" then it should be able to handle the network load effectively.  However if it's one of your workstations then you may want to consider doubling the recommended system requirements from above (i.e 2 GHz processor, 1 GB of system memory).
