Requirements:

Stinger 3.0 will run on a wide variety of platforms - anything from a PIII, 700Mhz machine should be suitable. However, for reliable 24/7 operation we recommend using a Pentium 4 CPU with 1Gb of RAM running Windows XP Pro SP2. SATA hard drives, while not essential, will increase performance. A USB slot is required for the Hardware Key version. Both hyper threading and dual-core should be disabled for reliability reasons (contact tech support for assistance if required).

Stinger 3.0.1 and later will run on Windows 7 Professional 32bit (64bit is not supported at this time). Neither hyper threading nor multiple cores are required to be disabled under Windows 7 as they were under Windows XP or earlier.
