System Requirements

If you're thinking about installing Parallels Workstation, here's what you'll need:

• A processor that's at least 400 MHz (1.5 GHz is better) that supports the Pentium II instruction set.


• A 32-bit platform is ideal; 64-bit support is available for Linux host OS.


• Sufficient memory for your host OS (like 128 MB for Windows XP) plus whatever you need for each guest system.


• You'll need about 20 MB of free disk space to install it—more if you're planning to store lots of data on virtual hard disks.

The Full Set

The software also virtualizes a full set of standard PC hardware like:

• Pentium II or AMD Duron CPU


• A compatible motherboard with Intel i815 chipset


• RAM up to 1500 MB


• A VGA or SVGA graphics card with VESA 3.0 support
