Basic System Needs for Hog3PC...

Hey all...

I had poked around some and not found a definitive answer to this question...

I'm aware of the minimum system requirements for Hog3PC, and our system meets that. However, it is a budget PC built with parts. So our next guess is that the system, though it says it meets requirements, isn't really putting out as it should.

I don't know a lot about components and what kind is better than the other, so I was wondering if anyone on here with a solid and stable running system could recommend either where to buy a computer from, or what to build the computer of?

We have two systems, both running the same type of machine, and both have problems. We used to run our touchscreens off of USB but the software crashed constantly. After relieving the USB bus of some of it's duties, we are more stable, but not completely. We run our touchscreens off of serial bus now.

Regardless, we aren't stable enough to run a show. Since plenty of people are, I figure I'd ask what kind of machine you run.


Thanks for your help in this matter. Hog2 is great, but I can't wait to make a permanent move to Hog3.

    I'm working with a Mini Mac 1.33GHz with 1GB Ram. I 've just installed the Windows. Nothing else. I've this system now sience 8 Month and i had never a big problem! It's a cheap ad very small solution to run a 3PC. The only bad thing is the PowerPlug at the miniMac, that looks a bit unstable. But a bit Glue have solve this problem!

    Good Luck!
    Cheers Tobi

    Tobi... Question... Are you running two ELO touchscreens with this setup?

    We are looking to run two touchscreens. We think this may be part of what is using up the resources of the computer. We just want to know that it can handle it...

    To count...

    2 widgets
    2 playback wings
    1 programming wing
    2 touchscreens
    1 keyboard
    1 mouse


    If we can run all those successfully, that would be our system of choice...
