Installation Requirements
A CD drive or access to the Internet is required for product installation. The minimum system configuration for installation is:
Operating Systems
Windows 10 (64-bit)*
Windows 8.1 (64-bit)* Windows 8 (64-bit)*
Windows 7 (64-bit)**
Bentley does not support its software running on Microsoft operating systems versions that Microsoft has "retired”. Microsoft has already deprecated support for Windows XP and “retire” it in 2014. For more information see Microsoft's application retirement policy and the Bentley Application Support Lifecycle.
* Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 are supplied with .NET Framework 4.5, whereas ProStructures CONNECT requires .NET Framework 3.5. Hence, if you are installing ProStructures CONNECT on Windows 8 or Windows 10, you need to enable the .NET Framework 3.5 in Control Panel. For details, refer to the Enabling the .NET Framework 3.5 in Control Panel and Troubleshooting sections in Installing the .NET Framework 3.5 on Windows 8, 8.1 or 10
Minimum Profile
The minimum recommended workstation profile for running ProStructures CONNECT:
Processor
Intel® or AMD® processor 2.0 GHz or greater. We do not support ProStructures CONNECT on a CPU that does not support SSE2.
Memory
1 GB available RAM minimum, 2 GB (32-bit OS) or 4 GB (64-bit OS) available RAM is recommended. More memory almost always improves performance, particularly when working with larger models.
Hard Disk
3.5 GB free disk space (which includes the 2 GB install footprint for a complete installation)
Video
Graphics card supported by DirectX 9.0c. See the graphics card manufacturer for latest information on DirectX drivers. 256 MB of video RAM or higher is recommended. If insufficient video RAM or no graphics card supported by DirectX can be found, ProStructures CONNECT attempts to use software emulation. For optimal performance, graphics display color depth should be set to 24-bit or higher.
