 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
 --------------------------------------------
 The minimum system requirements for this program are:

 ·· 486DX2/66 processor, and
 ·· Windows 95 with DirectX or Windows NT 4.00.

 The recommended system configuration includes:

 ·· P75 processor,
 ·· Windows 95 with DirectX 5,
 ·· 12Mb RAM,
 ·· sound card & DirectSound certified driver, and
 ·· accelerated video card & DirectDraw certified driver.

 The behavior of the ZX Spectrum Emulator under
 alternative shells (i.e., Program Manager) or operating
 systems (Win32s, Windows NT 3.XX) is undefined. The
 ZX Spectrum Emulator may exhibit problems when in
 fullscreen mode under early betas of Windows 98 and
 Internet Explorer 4 previews. These problems were fixed
 in the final release of Internet Explorer 4 and will
 hopefully not be present in the release version of
 Windows 98.

 This version of the ZX Spectrum Emulator will take
 advantage of DirectX 2 or higher features wherever
 possible. No specific DirectX version is required, but no
 extensive testing was performed on early versions. In
 addition, problems were reported when running previous
 releases of the ZX Spectrum Emulator under the
 aforementioned DirectX versions. A DirectX 5 installation
 is recommended therefore.

 Problems may arise when running the ZX Spectrum
 Emulator on Windows NT 4.00 (service packs 1, 2 and
 3 included). This is due to the lack of direct hardware
 support for the majority of display and sound cards
 (although the situation is reportedly better with service
 pack 3), on the version of DirectX that is built into this
 release of the operating system. New DirectX
 components that may solve these problems, should be
 available in future NT 4.00 service pack releases.
 Release 5.00 of Windows NT is expected to provide the
 same level of hardware support available on Windows
 95|98 and do away with any problems altogether.
