I have a PC, running Windows XP Pro.
Intel D955XBK Extreme Dual Core Processer a @ 3200Mhz.
Matrox Parhelia APVe Graphics Board.

Re: Computer Compatability?
I would add more RAM. Remember that 32-bit Windows XP can't use more than 4GB RAM and that some of that is mapped to graphics RAM which means you will only be able to use about a maximum of 3.25 Gb.
