Okay, well I am technically challanged.

I put the cd game into the driver(I think thats what it is called..whatever pops out and i put the cd-rom into) and then the game doesnt pop up. How do make the game work.

I have never used this game on this computer before (which, by the way is windows vista, i think). If that makes any difference.
In other words, how do i install it?
