New GM hardware/operating system requirements email script

Dear Valued AE Tools Customer, we wanted to reach out with an important update regarding your dealership's technology requirements. General Motors has officially updated its Dealer Infrastructure & Security Guidelines (DISG), and as of February 19, 2026, Windows 10 is no longer supported for GM dealership applications.

───────────────────WHAT'S CHANGING─────────────────────────────

All dealership PCs and laptops must now meet the following minimum requirements to remain compatible with GM systems, including Techline Connect, GDS2, and other critical tools:

 • Operating System: Windows 11 Professional, 64-bit (required)

• Processor: Intel Core i3/i5/i7 (8th Gen or above), or AMD Ryzen 6000 series or above  

• RAM: 16 GB minimum (32 GB recommended)  

• Storage: 1 TB minimum (2 TB recommended)  

• Network Adapter: Gigabit wired / 802.11ac wireless minimum.

For optimal performance, GM recommends Intel Core i5/i7/i9 (12th Gen or above) and 32 GB of RAM.

───────────────────WHY THIS MATTERS─────────────────────────────

Running unsupported operating systems exposes your dealership to security vulnerabilities, compliance issues, and potential incompatibility with GM tools and applications. Staying current ensures seamless operations, protects customer data, and keeps your team productive.
