I'm playing it with 2 gigs of RAM with everything on high except the resolution (1024) and anti-aliasing. Runs nicely.

*ahem* I'm playing Might & Magic 1. Yep, 1. The original. Big chunky non-animated graphics that remind me of why my old TI 99 computer was so groundbreaking in its time.

And hey, it's a great game. Hard as hell in places, but extremely entertaining.

...I guess we who didn't play MM1 in the golden years don't realize what we missed back then. But there is still time.

As for DMoMM, I recommend reading Tweakguides' hints on increasing performance for all sort of gaming rigs. I, for example, managed to reach stutter-free, glitch-free, übersmooth running at 1280x1024, 4xAA, 16xAnisotropic filtering, all details maxed out; average FPS (measured at the ingame console) is 38 outdoors, 75+ indoors. Without those ESSENTIAL optimizations at Tweakguides, it was absolutely impossible.

(P4 D945 at 4.2Ghz, 2 Gig DDR2, 500 Gig SATA RAID 0, 7950GT 512Mb RAM)

Yeah. The stability of this game depends a lot on the amount of RAM you have.
