I am developing a small to medium sized application and some of the perspective users and beta testers keep asking me things like "What are the minimum requirements of this program?" I honestly I have no idea how to answer that question. To be honest I have searched Google and have yet to find a clear cut method for determining the system requirements of software that we make. A fellow programmer of mine suggested just making something up, although I would like to avoid "B.S.ing" my way to the end of my project.

If it helps in any way I am writing the program in C# using VS08.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advanced,
DenKain

For memory, look at how much RAM it uses in the task manager. For processor speed, you'll need to estimate based on CPU % and what you have. Also, you'll need .NET installed with its minimum requirements.
