Is there a new minimum system requirements for version 1.7.4? I just saw a thread where an admin advised someone who has 768mb of memory to upgrade because he was having usb dropouts. I thought the minimum requirement was 512mb..

Hi Karrsin,

you're correct the minimum requirements are now 1GB

modern OSes just don't function too great with less than 1 GB

cheers

possibly, the way to check would be installing XP :-)
