I want to get halo 2 PC. If I get it do all I have to do is put it in the disc tray and I can play it? Or do I need special equipment other than a computer and internet? I dont know anything about computers or technology.

No, someone told him to post it in the Halo 1&2 PC Forum instead. He did that.

All you have to do is install it to your computer, log onto your Xbox LIVE account, auto-download the update, and then play. I'd just check to see if your computer specs are up to the challenge. Do you have Vista or Win7?

To add to that, Halo 2 for PC is one of the very few games that let you play without installing it, but you will have to leave the disk in the tray the entire time.

The advantage to installing it is you can leave the tray empty when playing and quicker load times. In my case when I hit start new campaign it loads in a few seconds; the loading screen doesn't even have time to finish sweeping across before it continues.

They're operating systems. I'm guessing you either have Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7. Figure out which one you have because only Windows Vista/7 can run Halo 2 PC. There's a hack to use it on XP, but, that's only for the Campaign.

This is one of the reasons why Console is best for you.
