Please review the following computer requirements to ensure that your computer is capable of running Moodle. The greatest single factor for a positive Moodle experience is the use of a high-speed or broadband internet connection.

Internet Access

• Broadband or high-speed internet access is strongly recommended. Broadband includes DSL, cable, and wireless connections.
  
• Dial-Up internet connections will result in a diminished online experience. Moodle pages may load slowly and viewing large audio and video files may not be possible.
  

Hardware

• Virtually all Windows-Mac-Linux hardware configurations and processors are acceptable.
• 1 GB RAM recommended
  

Software

• Operating Systems
  • Windows XP or Vista and Mac OS X 10 and higher, most Linux distributions
    
    
• Web Browsers
  • Mozilla Firefox 2 and 3 (previous versions will work also)
