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) http://www.tweakguides.com/DMOMM_1.html

The Thread™ will die.

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