What Kind Of Computer Do I Need?

Since your online medical transcription course will be taken on a computer at your own pace, it makes sense to ensure that you have all the right equipment. It would not be good to get half way through the course and discover that you are missing specific technological necessities. To complete the medical transcription course you use the following list as a checklist.

1. You need a PC, not a Macintosh. The course is not currently available on Macintosh, but check back here often as we are constantly improving the course so this could change.
2. Your operating system should be Windows-based and we recommend Windows XP, Windows 7, Vista or Windows 200.
3. You need a Pentium processor, 500 MHz or better.
4. You should have 128mg RAM.
5. Your screen resolution should be set to 1024 X 768 pixels.
6. You need a color monitor with as many colors available as possible.
7. A CD-ROM drive.
8. Sound card.
9. Speaker jack.
10. A modern Web browser like Firefox 2.0 or higher or Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher.
11. USB port or 15-pin game port.
