  Windows XP Home Edition?

  Posted by Rob Roams on June 1, 2007 at 12:36 pm

  Hi,
  Will Media Composer software only, version 2.5.3, preform well with Windows XP Home Edition with SP2? Or do I need to buy Windows Professional?

  Pentium D Intel Dual-Core 3.6GHz
  2GB of RAM

  Thank you

  You’ll need professional to avoid headaches. Using XP home has caused all sorts of problems with the Avid software.

  Windows XP Home is not supported for any version of Media Composer. See required specs below:

  Media Composer – Windows
  Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 2
  System memory: 2 GB minimum, 3 GB recommended for HD or high stream count SD projects.
  CPU: Dual 3.06 GHz Xeon
