Installing SAP on a P4
I am new to SAP. I have a P4 system with 256MB RAM and 40 GB hard disk. Would I be able to install SAP on this computer or do I need to upgrade? If I need to, what's the minimum system requirements to install SAP? If I need to increase the hard disk can I buy another hard disk and have two drives or do I need to have one single large hard disk? Thanks in Advance.

Best Regards,
Rama

Installation of SAP requires certain expertise and technical knowledge. It's not like installing application software on your PC. I don't suggest installing SAP on a personal computer. You will not be able to run SAP products efficiently on a PC with limited resources.
