VMD 1.8.3 Windows Release Notes
Windows Installation Notes:
- VMD requires Windows 2000 or XP as the base operating system.
- VMD requires a pentium class machine with approximately 32MB of RAM, and 16-bit color video as a minimally useful configuration. The use of an OpenGL hardware accelerated video card is highly recommended.
