Hardware:

Pretty much any computer that can run the above operating systems and has a USB port.

There are no strict requirements for the speed of the processor, the amount of RAM, or the disk space, but working with pictures takes considerable computer recourses so the more you have the better.

Cam2Com has been successfully used on Pentium 2 computers with 64MB RAM and 4 GB hard drives, however the more the better.

Installation of Cam2Com takes less then 6.4 MB on the hard drive; the rest are the pictures.

NOTE: Serial ports are not supported by Cam2Com even though some cameras have them and they can be used to download pictures outside Cam2Com.


There were reports of successful using Cam2Com when running Windows emulation on MAC computers.
