    You're fine.

    Just make sure to disable your antivirus (and add PWI to it's exception list) before installing, or you may have problems.

    Honestly, almost any kind of computer can run PWI with no problem but maybe reducing graphics.

    Some things that you can try are:

    - Add exceptions (adds file(s) to an exclusion list) for the game's file(s) into your antivirus software.

    You may need to add exceptions for the following programs:

    elementclient.exe (the main game)
    pwprotector.exe (the onscreen keyboard on the login screen)
    patcher.exe (the game patcher)
    launcher.exe (the game start-up menu)

    - Temporarily disabling (please note that you do this AT YOUR OWN RISK) your antivirus software long enough to get the game installed and playing, then re-enabling your antivirus software.

    Note: By disabling your antivirus, you do so at your own risk, and PWE is not responsible for any damages that could occur to your system hardware or software, or any loss of data that could occur.

    If you are still having problems getting your antivirus software to cooperate with your intentions on playing your games, here are some links to some known antivirus software publisher's support websites.

    Norton Security Programs :- http://us.norton.com/support/ you can learn it from here how to disable or add exception to files etc.

    You can maybe download the client without disabling your antivirus, if you have an antivirus with a really bad heuristic scan. But it will then eat the client after you install.
    Google is your friend, use it. Go to the site of your antivirus and look in the help section. The will have a guide telling you how to temporarily disable the scans, and also how to add the client directory to the exclusion lists.

    The Torrent Method is much faster and gives you the least headache. (That is a hyperlink there, click it and follow every step.)
