Hard Disk and System Recommendations

NMS uses one of 16 available Windows’ timers. If, when starting, all of the timers
are used by other applications, a dialog box appears. Close one or more windows
and try to restart NMS.
Ongoing Requirements
In addition to NMS checking the available disk space at start-up, NMS also
periodically checks the system resources. Checked is the available computer
memory (RAM), Windows resources, and available hard disk space.
If either the log files are too large (greater than the amount of free space) or if the
amount of free space is less than five megabytes, a dialog box appears informing
you of the condition.
At this time it is best to shut down NMS and create more free space on the hard
drive. You can, however, press the OK button on the dialog box to ignore the
warning and continue normal operation.
