System Requirements

System Requirements

Chances are your computer meets or exceeds all system requirements for viewing or listening to a webcast. Realplayer software requires a certain amount of memory and a minimum processor speed. However, if your computer is a few years older, you may only need to run an older version of RealPlayer. (Version 5, for example—see the download page for instructions).

Here are the system requirements for your computer (if you need help figuring out what you have inside, here are a few hints:)

Windows: On the C Drive, under "My Computer", select "Control Panel." In the window that appears, select the "System" icon. Under the "General" tab you will find the details you need about the operating system (OS), the speed of your processor and how much RAM you have.
Macintosh: Under the Apple Menu, select "Apple System Profiler" and in the window that appears, select the tab "System Profile." Here you will find the details you need about your operating system under "Software Overview"; about RAM, under "Memory Overview," and processor speed under "Hardware Overview."

Windows:
120MHz Intel Pentium processor or equivalent (audio only)
16MB of RAM, i.e. the RealPlayer requires this much RAM, so depending depending on what other applications are installed on your computer, you will probably need more than 16MB of RAM.)
