Here are the system requirements listed on the web page:

http://www.uvlayout.com/doc/Installation_Guide:_Requirements

1GHz Intel CPU
256Mb RAM, 512Mb for Windows
20Mb free disk space for software, 1Gb free for videos (optional)
[b] Mid to high performance OpenGL graphics card[/color][/b]
Three button mouse
Sound card (optional - for training videos only)
1 free USB port (optional - for Dongle licenses only)
Wired or wireless network card (optional - for Ether licenses only)

Can anybody tell me what -- "Mid to high performance OpenGL graphics card" covers? What model of Nivida card would be work and or what version of OpenGL is needed in order for this to run?

Thanks
Brad

"Mid to high performance OpenGL graphics card"

I wrote that a while back when integrated graphics chips were pretty bad, but you might be able to get away without a separate card in any modern system. I would still recommend having something like an nvidia card though, and any new one will be good.

If you're already doing 3D modelling work (eg Maya, Max, Zbrush) then you'll have no problems running UVLayout as well.
