General Requirements
ProcessorIntel / AMD onlyPentium-class PC: a minimum clock speed of 1.5 GHz is recommended
Operating SystemWINDOWS 2000 (SP 4) or WINDOWS XP (SP 1)
Graphics Options3D cardOpenGL hardware graphic accelerator (highly recommended). Systems without an OpenGL graphic board will perform significantly slower.
Internal MemoryA minimum of 1 GB is recommended for comfortable CATIA handlingUse of memory, Configuration
The user configuration does not always allow the user to use hardware capabilities of the computer. It is necessary to use the maximum value possible for datasize and stacksize for the solver and the user interface. So we recommend you to set datasize and stacksize limits to “unlimited” in the end-user configuration.
25 Copyright © ESI Group, 2006. All rights reserved.
External Memory (Hard disk)It is recommended to have at least 50 MB available for the installation of the software on Intel / AMD platforms and 50 MB for UNIX platforms.
For storage of the various projects, a minimum of 1 GB is recommended. Obviously, this is depending on the project size.
MonitorSuper VGA monitor with the following settings:
Screen resolution set to at least 1280 × 1024
Small fonts selected
Mouse3 button mouse (for Intel / AMD systems a 3 button wheel-mouse is recommended, as this version supports dynamic zoom via the wheel)
General Requirements

GPS (Generative Part stress Analysis)
Either HD2 (CATIA Hybrid Design 2) or AC3 (Automotive Class A configuration)
As PAM-TFA for CATIA V5 makes use of certain modules of CATIA, these modules need to be available:
