It will load a program onto your computer in order to investigate its stats, but its very safe and can easily be uninstalled after.How do you find your computers statistics in order to see if you are able to play a computer game?
check if what you've bought is a dvdrom or cdrom. if you don't have a dvd drive it won't play.



if you have vista you can find your system spec through the welcome centre. also you can look in control panel device manager to check hardware etc.
