Hi Danial, I've just installed it on a 486DX2/80, with a 350meg hdd and it seems to run ok. A 500 meg Hdd will be ok for starters. Try and get a least 32megs of ram if you can. Will install on 8megs up though I think.
I'd recommend doing an easy install first time. Once you get use to it do an advanced install to HPFS.
Its bit slower than win95 though but someting different. Has some quirks, but once you get use to them its fine. After using it for a while I quite like it.
Have about 300megs for the install, this will be reduced once the install is completed.
Hope this helps and happy Warping
