System Requirements and Recommendations:
SEIS can run well in many environments, including some older Operating Systems such as Windows 2000 and Mac OS 9.x, however features are no longer tested in those environments due to discontinued vendor support for those products.

SEIS features are currently tested and fully supported in the following:
 
For Windows:

Operating System Requirements:
· XP SP2 or higher
· Vista SP1 or higher
· Windows 7

Software Requirements:
· Adobe Reader 7+ (recommended Adobe Reader 9)
· Internet Explorer 7+ or Firefox 2.0+ or Safari 3.0+

Hardware Requirements:
· 1GB of RAM minimum(2GB+ Recommended)

For Macintosh:

Operating System Requirements:
· OSX 10.2+

Software Requirements:
· Firefox 2.0+ or Safari 2.0+
· Adobe Reader 7+ (recommended Adobe Reader 9)

Hardware Requirements:
· 1GB of RAM minimum(2GB+ Recommended)

Pop-Ups:
Many features in SEIS require the use of Pop ups. Pop ups need to be unblocked for the SEIS website with any blocker that may be installed on the user’s computer such as in their internet browser or virus protection software. This will ensure that users are able to View and Print all of their Forms in SEIS.

Bandwidth Requirements:
· Minimum 128Kb dedicated bandwidth for each 2 concurrent SEIS users.
Internet Connection, of course, the faster the better. Cable, DSL or T-1 are preferable. While dial up connections can be used, such slow connectivity will cause pages to load slowly.

Local County Office and School District Networks can also have an effect on how well an Internet-based system will function for users. It is helpful for new SEIS SELPA’s to involve their IT department in the process.
