Games
Your new Internet PC is not
only a powerful tool for
surfing the Internet and
running software, it also
allows you to play some
games. Before purchasing a
game, check the computer
requirements (listed on the
outside of the game box) to
make sure that your
computer is configured
correctly for the game you
want to buy.
You should always use the
same disc drive (CD-ROM or
DVD-ROM) that you used to
install a game when you play
the game. If you experience
problems installing or playing
a game, contact the game
manufacturer for assistance,
or visit their Web site for
updates.
