System Requirements for the SimUText Application

WINDOWS

PLEASE NOTE:  Microsoft no longer supports Windows 7 which means we can no longer guarantee that SimUText will run on Windows 7. 

The SimUText application fully supports the following versions of Microsoft Windows:

  • Windows 10
  • Windows 8 and 8.1

An OpenGL2.1 or DirectX 11 supported graphic card,  See Unable To Run SimUText On Unsupported Or Out-Of-Date Graphics Cards for more information.

A computer with a minimum screen resolution of 1024 x 768.
(Netbooks with smaller screens are not supported, although it may be possible to change the screen resolution on some Netbooks to allow SimUText to run in a 1024x768 screen dimension as discussed here.)

SimUText will not install on Surface tablets (Surface 1, 2, RT) with ARM processors.  Surface Pro tablets have Intel Core processors and should be able to run SimUText with minor Windows configuration adjustments.

PLEASE NOTE:  Apple no longer supports OS X 10.14 or lower which means we cannot guarantee that SimUText will run on OS X 10.14 or OS X 10.13.  (It will definitely not run on OS X 10.12 or lower.)

The SimUText application fully supports the following versions of Mac OSX:

  • Intel processors only, 2nd generation or higher (64-bit). The program will not run on a 32-bit Core Duo CPU (shipped in early 2006 only) but will run on a Core 2 Duo CPU (64-bit). PowerPC hardware is not supported.
