  • I don't mind taking the chance and swap yours for mine that I run RS on without problems Smile  -  it is a lenovo with less than half the power of yours.
  • I am using a Dell M4400 with comparable specs minus the graphics card. (Quadro FX1700M) with no issues. We have run RS 5.XX on M90's, M60's, D840's productively. 
  • Hardware looks nice, but Windows XP? I would recommend you upgrade to Windows 7 64-bit if possible.

  • Is robotstudio known to be working on windows 7 yet.
  • Windows 7 is not officially supported by 5.12.03, but I'm not aware of any issues. RS 5.13 will support Windows 7.
