Hardware and software required when using the current version of TARGET 3001!

• Operating system: (Windows XP*, Windows Vista), Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, Windows 11, Linux**
• Processor: at least 2 GHz Intel/AMD, Multicore: TARGET uses only one core
• Memory: at least 1 GB
• Graphics: at least 1024x800 pixel, Open-GL support for 3D view
• Graphics memory: 1 GB
• Internet access required for some functions: Program help (Wiki), program update, database update, data sheets, additional supplier information etc.

* When using Win XP it might occur that the missing of the file normaliz.dll is alerted. What to do??
** TARGET normally runs well under Linux using Wine but we can give no warranty. The ELECTRA autorouter runs under a genuine Windows only.

Some functions in TARGET (STEP-Import, Componiverse, Electra, etc.) require Visual C++ Redistributable Package

For installation the Ubuntu-User Winetricks can be used. This already is on Ubuntu.

This end it worked only using the pack VCRUN2008. VCRUN2013 etc. caused errors.

NOTE: There is an ongoing effort in Wine to provide a complete Microsoft Visual C++runtime library replacement - removing the need of installing the Microsoft VC++ redistributables packages. This is a work in progress hence you might still need to install Microsoft VC++ runtime.
