What sort of hardware and software do I need to run the Spreadex site on my computer?

Hardware
Any modern PC, purchased within the last 7 years can be used to connect to our site and run our interface. For the more technically minded - any computer with a Pentium IV or better CPU and at least 1GB of memory will be absolutely fine.
Screen Resolution
The minimum screen resolution that your monitor should be set to is 1024x768. This can be configured by going into the Control Panel, clicking on ‘Display’, then clicking on the ‘Settings’ tab and moving the Screen Resolution slider to the desired setting. It’s worth noting that the resolution options will be severely limited if you don’t have the correct video drivers installed.
