One possible error message you may encounter while installing UFODAP software may
be from the software installer noticing a very low amount of system RAM you have, e.g.,
2GB.
The UFODAP User Guide specifies a minimum system of:
• Windows 10 OS on a PC Computer with Core i5 processor, 16GB memory and 2GB
free disk memory. A faster computer, e.g., an i7 or i9 or with higher speed ratings may
provide higher analysis frame rates and thus better tracking of faster targets.
A slower PC, e.g., and i5, may work but process frame rates may be reduced,
especially at higher camera resolutions.
That is also a rather slow CPU. For a comparison to a minimal i5 see:

TRACKING PROBLEMS
If you have difficult tracking problems, please share data about those issues as follows:
-- Verify correct operation without P/T or Zoom enabled
-- Then verify if there is a problem with only P/T enabled
-- Only if that works, enable zoom
To share data on this, please send me the avi of the Wide camera and a screenshot of
the Tracking and Camera parameters used at the time.
However, one probable cause of this behavior is that the PID proportional value in the
Camera parameters is set too high for your camera -- try setting it to 5 and run a test.
If that works for you, then increase it a bit with each test until you notice overshoot or
hunting during tracking, then back it off.
CAMERA SETUP FOR FOCUS AND ZOOM
-- Suppressing noise in dark conditions may require adjusting (one at a time) increasing
the Delta threshold, increasing Blur or increasing Min area.
-- The focusing method is:
