On your first connection it can take up to 2 hours to Initialise World. This is due to the engine recalculating its lighting variables to your system. During this time, you should not touch your keyboard or click the mouse, and you should ignore if it says \"Not Responding\". If after the 2 hours it does not load, or it crashes, it may be that you do not have enough RAM for the game.


[Edit: After that it should load in less than a few minutes. You should use OpenGL mode if your system allows it.]

256MB of RAM has pretty much been determined as the minimum, although more is always better, as this release uses quite a bit.

Depends on your OS, for Windows probably the quickest way would be:
- right click on My Computer
- select properties
