Default Just a Quick question

Im thinking about bying a game from the NCSoft store, they said that no package will be sent which means that I will just get the activqation key, so can someone tell me how to install the game without a CD?

It may be an easy question but im not much into I-Net or computers

You download all the game files through a usually secure server, and then load the client and activate your account.

the client is downloaded onto the actual computer and doesn't need information from a disc while playing. with the activation key it just means you get the information needed to activate an account.

Ok, assuming you already have a Guild Wars account, start up the program and log in so that you are at the character selection screen, then press the Edit Account button.



Check the Manage Access Keys box and press Next.



Click on the Add Key button.



Enter the access key for your product in the boxes provided and press the Next button.



That's all there is to it

Make sure you keep your keys in a safe place in case you need them in the future.
