System requirements for GMS, SMS and WMS.
Windows 10
Windows 10 is supported in GMS 10.0, SMS 12.1, WMS 10.0 and greater versions only.
| Component | Minimum Required | Recommended |
|---|---|---|
| RAM | 4 GB | 8 GB or greater |
| CPU | XMS software is CPU intensive. We recommend the fastest CPU your budget allows. | |
| Hard Disk Free Space | 2 GB | 2 GB or greater |
| Graphics Card | For all display features to be enabled, OpenGL 1.5 or higher must be supported. | The use of a dedicated graphics card is strongly recommended. Integrated graphics cards are often problematic. |

Notes
- There may be display problems when running over a remote desktop. This can usually be fixed by restarting the software after beginning/ending a remote desktop session. Remote Desktop cannot be used with single-user/standalone locks, only with network locks.
- Always download and install the latest drivers from your graphics card vendor. Graphics card problems are often due to using the wrong or outdated drivers. See Graphics Card Troubleshooting for instructions on how to download and install graphics card drivers. If continuing to experience problems after updating a graphics card drivers, contact support.
