System requirements

Processor: Any Intel® x86 compatible CPU

Operating system:

•	Windows 2000;

•	Windows 2000 Server;

•	Windows XP (all editions) (both x86 and x64);

•	Windows 2003 Server (both x86 and x64);

•	Windows Vista (both x86 and x64).

The program doesn't work under Windows 9x,Me and NT!

CPU speed: Recommended 1 GHz or faster – our software may run successful on certain slower CPUs but because of Windows overhead, performance test results will not be as accurate.

Memory: Recommended 256 MB.

Free disk space: Virtual Null Modem takes up about 5 MB but additional space required for log files.

Special login requirements: You must be logged on as a user with Administrator privileges to run our software. It is necessary for access certain registry keys and plug/eject/install virtual serial ports.

Microsoft Vista notes:

Because our software uses a kernel-mode driver for creating virtual serial ports, therefore:

1.	You need administrator privileges to run our software;

2.	The desktop icon of our software will contain a shield (pic.1);

3.	Windows Vista will ask your permission to continue (pic.2).

You may disable User Account Control manager and you'll never see the dialog above. Please, search Google for a solution.
