Important: Please ensure that your equipment complies with the minimum system requirements, as well as any additional client-specific requirements outlined in the Program Announcements. This initial PC Check confirms that your system meets the minimum requirements. Should the client program you select have additional technical requirements, you will be prompted to complete an additional PC scan prior to enrolling in the corresponding certification class. 

Please note:  Our partner Arise does not provide any reimbursement for any business-related expenses incurred during the registration and client program selection process should your equipment not meet the necessary requirements. So, it’s a good idea to double-check everything ahead of time to ensure a successful start!

What is the PC Check and how do I run it?
The PC Check is designed to help you determine if your computer meets some of the minimum requirements to connect through our partner platform.

1. Click “RUN” at the bottom of this page.

2. Depending on your system and security settings, you may see up to two confirmation dialogs, please click “Yes” or “Run” depending on the prompt.

3. Wait for the check to run.

4. Your PC Check results will be displayed.

NOTES: Be sure to open the detection.exe file when prompted. Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome are recommended. If you encounter an error, please try a different browser. Temporarily turn off virus defenders and pop-up blockers that may be preventing the file from launching. If you continue to get an error message, contact Virtualmeans support.

What if my computer fails any of the checks?

  • CPU speed test: Unfortunately, this is not something that can be fixed. Your best option is to use another computer.
  • RAM test: Increasing RAM is an easy and very common computer upgrade. Please work with a trained technician or if you feel comfortable performing this yourself, ensure you use the correct RAM upgrade recommended for your computer model.
  • Operating System test: Windows 11 is required.
  • Is there a support specialist available to check my computer?
