To quote from the Intel site:

"Intel JPEG Library System Requirements

The Intel JPEG Library runs on Intel Architecture-based personal computers
running Microsoft Windows. The library integrates into an application or
library written in C or C++. The Intel JPEG Library requires the following
hardware and software:

Hardware
Intel Pentium processor-based system (a Pentium, Pentium Pro, Pentium with
MMX technology, Pentium II, or Pentium III processor-based system) 8 MBytes
RAM (32 MBytes RAM recommended)

Software
Microsoft Windows 95/98, Windows NT 4.0 or higher A C++ compiler: Intel
C/C++ Compiler version 2.4 or higher, or Microsoft Visual C++ version 4.0 or
higher"


However, there is a free JPEG library available which is cross platform. The
issue of JPEG output has previously been discussed in this newsgroups and
JPEG output is unsuitable for POV-Ray (just search a few month back to find
a thread on it). JPEG input is another issue.
