Question: How do I purchase a game key?
- Answer: A game key allows you to unlock the full version of a game. You can purchase a game key through our website or the trial version of a game. For most of our games, we will email you a game key as soon as you place your order. To unlock the full version of the game, you must then follow the instructions contained in the email we sent you.
IMPORTANT: save your game key, or the email containing your game key, in a safe place. That way, the game key will be available if you need to reinstall the game at a later date.

Question: My game won't start.
- Answer: Download and install the latest version of the game from our website. There might have been a bug in the game that we've already fixed.
Make sure your PC meets the minimum system requirements. These are contained in the readme.htm file in the game folder on your PC. Check to see if other applications are running. Use your Task Manager to shut down applications and processes you don't need. Install the latest software updates for your operating system (OS). Make sure you've installed the latest version of the drivers for your video card and the most recent version of DirectX. To locate the drivers for your video card, visit the website of the company that manufactured the card. You can download DirectX for free at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/directx/downloads. Make sure you have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player for Internet Explorer on your PC http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/.
