Hardware Requirements

You need a x486 (actually, x386 + x387 works too) or better and Microsoft Windows 9x, NT or later (including Win2000 and XP).

A big amount of RAM memory improves speed. I recommend al least 32Mb. More if you like huge fractals.

Fractal Forge doesn't need a true color graphics card, but I strongly recommend it. True color means over 16 million colors (2^ 24). However, if you have a 256-color video card, you can select Draft from Optimization to have a dithered image.

With most Windows 9x video cards, you can just right click on the desktop to change the number of colors.
