EasyWorship is compatible with Windows 98SE, ME, 2000, XP
and Vista, and will run on most computers that meet the
requirements for those operating systems. And since
EasyWorship is a dual output system, you’ll need a dual output
card for displaying the control screen separately from the
live presentation output.
You don’t need a fast computer to take advantage of the
basic features EasyWorship has to offer. However, if you want
to display text over moving backgrounds with video transitions
or if you’re looking to display HD content, pay close
attention to these requirements.
Basic Requirements
Keeping it simple? Here’s what you need to display songs
and Scriptures over still backgrounds and to run PowerPoint
slideshows
- 500 MHz Pentium II Processor or better
- 128 MB RAM
- 100 MB free disk space
- Two video cards or a
dual head video card
- CD-ROM Drive
General Requirements
Here’s what you need to play DVDs and display text over
video with smooth transitions.
- 1.7 GHz Pentium 4 Processor or better
- 512 MB RAM or more
- 7200 RPM hard drive
- 500 MB free disk space
- NVIDIA G-Force 5200
video card or better (Dual output AGP or PCI Express video
graphics card with 128 MB of dedicated video RAM)
- Available DVD drive and recommended codecs
HD Requirements
- 2.8 Ghz Intel dual core or quad core processor or better
- 1 GB RAM or more for XP / 2 GB RAM or more for Vista
- SATA 7200 RPM Hard Drive with 8MB cache
- 500 MB of free disk space
- NVIDIA G-Force 8600
video card or better (we suggest PCI Express NVIDIA graphics
cards).
Laptops
Laptop computers should meet the same requirements of a
desktop computer. Verify with your laptop manufacturer that
the video card can support Windows extended desktop and not
just clone what is on your laptop display. Most late model
laptops with NVIDIA, ATI or Intel graphics cards will have
this ability. If you only have one monitor connection on your
laptop, your laptop display will be your primary output
(operator screen) and your projector will be your secondary
output (live screen).
Video Cards
Video cards should be purchased with either an AGP or PCI
Express interface. Standard PCI video cards will work, but you
will be unable to do quality video transitions and high
definition video.
We recommend using NVIDIA GeForce cards because of the ease
of driver installation and Windows Extended desktop setup and
overall performance. We do not recommend using the Nvidia
Quadro chipset as they do not work well with EasyWorship.
We do not recommend ATI video cards due to driver issues
that cause many different problems with EasyWorship. The ATI
HD 3000 series are currently having driver problems that will
cause the driver to crash while using Windows extended
desktop.
- Basic: 5200, 5500, 6200
- Recommended: 7600, 7800, 8400, 8600, 9400, 9500
- HD: 8800, 9600, 9800
Capture Cards
The following capture cards have been tested and work in
EasyWorship. For the least amount of delay set the capture
settings in EasyWorship to 640x480 or 320x240. This will give
you good projection quality, but is not ideal for production
purposes.

Unsupported Processors
- Intel Celeron
- AMD Duron
- AMD Sempron
(Processors such as the Intel Celeron, AMD Duron and
Sempron processors were designed for office use. They work
well for that type of environment, but not as well for
multimedia. We recommend a processor that is designed to
handle multimedia as well as office needs.)
