[RESOLVED] .Net app requirements

[dee-u]

Is there a minimum requirement for a .Net app for its installation? Like how much minimum memory, clock speed, etc. And I want to verify, will it run on ME?

From the readme.html:
Looks like apps wi'll run on ME as well as they do on XP Home, but not VS

Notes

1. Windows XP Home Edition provides limited functionality. Creating Web applications or XML Web services is not supported when using Windows XP Home Edition.
2. ASP.NET applications can only be hosted on Windows XP Professional, Windows 2000, and Windows Server 2003.
3. Microsoft Windows 2000 Datacenter Server is not a supported operating system.
4. Increasing your RAM above the recommended system configuration increases your performance specifically when running multiple applications, working with large projects, or doing enterprise-level development.
5. When you start the Visual Studio .NET 2003 installer, the default installation location is your system drive, which is the drive that boots your system. However, you can install the application on any drive. Regardless of the application's location, the installation process installs some files on your system drive. Consequently, ensure that the required amount of space identified in the tables above is available on your system drive regardless of the application's location, and ensure that additional space is available on the drive on which you install the application. Custom installation choices may require more or less drive space.
6. Windows 2000 Service Packs are available at http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/downloads/servicepacks/default.asp.
