I have produced a small exe (1.6mb) which doesnt have any file access and
doesnt have very heavy memory requirements. It was created in Visual Studio
2005.

How would I go about calculating the minimum windows version and hardware
configuration (processor speed, ram size, disk size) ?

re: How to Determine Minimum Requirements


Your minimum requirements would HAVE to be at least the minimum requirements
for .NET. Those are on the box if you still have you 2005 box.

You should be able to search MSDN (msdn.microsoft.com) to find application
requirements for dotnet applications. Your requirements would be at least
those, if it doesn't do anything taxing on the system, that would probably
be just fine.

The most required hardware is free memory for .net IMHO, and don't
trust your app's total size, and note that an app which is smaller
than 50kb can cost tens of megabytes from memory. A good example for
this is webbrowser control which has a flash component inside.
