- PC: Pentium 4 2GHz; 256 RAM; 500MB free hard disk space; 3D capable video card; 10/100 network card; Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later, or later versions of Windows (including Windows Vista). Windows XP can be either of the three available versions: Home, Professional or Media Center Edition 2005 (MCE 2005).
