You should have plenty of hard drive space to install Traim Simulator. It needs 1.5 GB for a fall install. You can do a minimum install at 500 MB of hard drive, but I suspect the reaction would be "what's the point?" <br /> <br />It eats up 32 MB of RAM, so you should have enough, depending on what else is running at the time. <br /> <br />The specs say it needs a multi-media PC sith a Pentium II 266 MHz or higher processor with 4MB of 3D video hardware acceleration., or a Pentium II 350 MHz or higher processor. Don't know what you have on the inside but I suspect it can handle it. <br /> <br />Is it a good program? Depends on how much you like trains or really wish you could drive one. It's as close as most of us will get. I want to work more on the switching part of this program, and the activities editor lets you create any scenario you want in that regard. Once you get the hang of the passenger lines, I don't know how exciting they would be. But they are a challenge when you begin. <br /> <br />And running the steam locomotives is an art that I have yet to accomplish. <br /> <br />For those who aren't into trains, the game will seem pretty tame. But they wouldn't be coming to this website anyway. <br /> <br />Tom
