Windows^® Versions

To use PhotoScore 4 for Windows your system requires the following hardware:

• An IBM compatible Pentium or higher PC with Windows 98 2nd Edition/Me/2000/XP or later. At least 128MB RAM - 192MB is recommended or 256MB if using Windows 2000/XP. If your computer has less than 128MB RAM, contact your supplier for a memory upgrade. More than 256MB may be desirable if you need to scan small staves a lot, or for scanning photos and graphics.

• Your computer should also have a reasonable amount of free hard disk space - at least 40MB and preferably rather more.

• Adobe Reader 6.0 or later should be installed to view PhotoScore’s PDF help.

• Sibelius/G7 users note: Although PhotoScore will work with Sibelius/G7 version 1.3 and higher, It is recommended that you use Sibelius/G7 4.0 or higher as it has greatly improved PhotoScore importing capabilities.

• A scanner (probably connected to your computer via a USB, Printer or SCSI port), and installed TWAIN or WIA driver software.
