2. With service pack 1
3. If you wish to run parallel gO:CFD or gBAs on RedHat distributions prior to version 9.0, and others based on them, please see this note.
4. In some situations running gPROMS on modern Linux distributions may result in an error stating that '__dynamic_cast_2' is undefined. To fix this you will require libstdc++-6.2-2. If you do not have this version of the GNU standard C++ libraries installed on your system, you can still run by downloading it from here and extracting it into your $GPROMSHOME/lib directory.
5. With Visual Studio 6.
6. For Kernel 2.4 with gcc 2.9.6, for Kernel 2.6 with gcc 3.4.4.
