Configuration and Hardware Requirements

Just as we realize how important it is for you to be able to select the software product and vendor of your choice, we feel that it is equally important to select the hardware and network vendor of your choice. Our sales and technical staff will work closely with your vendor to help setup and install the ideal hardware/network configuration for you and ensure that our software is installed properly.

American Medical Software’s Medical Office Systems will run in a variety of operating environments and network configurations. American Medical Software runs on both 32 bit and 64 bit Windows® operating systems. It runs on anything from a single PC with Windows® XP to intricate LAN, WAN, and VPN connections requiring the expertise of a trained hardware/network technician.

Minimum requirements are based on the AMS software only and do not address other applications that may be running simultaneously. Heavy workloads may increase requirements.

There are additional products from Pervasive Software that are required. Offices with 5 computers or less require the Pervasive SQL V10.30 or higher WorkGroup Engine. For smaller sites desiring additional security, performance, or growth potential, the Pervasive SQL 10.30 or higher Client/Server Engine is recommended.

Sites with 6 or more computers require the Pervasive SQL V10.30 or higher Client/Server Engine. Both Pervasive products are available to AMS clients at a discount from Goldstar Software. Contact Bill Bach or Mary Jo Van Sipma at 708-647-7665 or sales@goldstarsoftware.com.

Select the configuration and peripherals that most closely fits your practice.

If your office has less 5 or fewer computers, refer to the Small Office Configuration.

If you office has 6 or more computers, refer to the Advanced Configuration.
