I want to buy a laptop second hand and want to know the minimum system requirements for copying DVDs with DVD Shrink or other recoding software. Thanks in advance.

DVD Shrink Operating System Support - Windows 9x/2000/XP
All you need is enough hard drive space.

If you plan on raiding peoples' collections with that thing, you may want to check the dvd drive's read speed, or you'll be there forever when they're trying to kick you out and go to sleep.

yea...the DVD drive is important.
A Netflix membership really enhances your DVD Shrink experience though....you should check it out.

I meant processor speed primarily.

500 mhz is what most dvd recorders ask for with 128megram.. i would shoot for 512.

No 98. But he also has an old Packard Bell that has a 1 gig hard drive with windows 95 on it. I'll ask him to try installing shrink on it to see if it'll even do it.
