MapPro Hardware Requirements

General Requirements
As a general rule any new entry level PC currently available would more than adequately fulfill all the requirements for MapPro.

Processor/Memory Requirements
MapPro requires a 1 GHz PC with 256 MB of RAM is recommended.  MapPro will run with any 32 bit Windows operating system - Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows NT, Windows 2000 or Windows XP.

CD-ROM/Hard Disk Requirements
MapPro requires a minimum of 50 MB of available hard disk space and a CD-ROM Drive. The maps contained on the CD are installed on the hard disk. The amount of disk space required for the maps can vary greatly depending upon the number and size of the licensed counties. 1 GB of disk space may be required on some installations.

Internet Requirements
An internet connection is required to perform product registration, software updates, and license updates from the MapPro Server.

Printer Requirements
An ink jet or laser printer capable of at least 300 dpi resolution. Many older printers may not have sufficient memory to print the complex graphics contained on the maps. Most 300 dpi black & white laser printers require 2 MB of memory. Most 600 dpi black & white laser printers or 300 dpi color ink jet printers require 4 MB of memory.

Video/Monitor Requirements
MapPro does not have any special Video Controller or Monitor requirements and will work satisfactorily on a 15 in. SVGA monitor at 256 colors, but because the maps contain complex graphics, system performance and the quality of the displayed maps are greatly enhanced with a 17 in. or larger monitor and a video controller with 16 MB or more memory with 64,000 colors at 1024/768 screen resolution.
