Games usually require that you insert the CD in the drive to show that you own a legal copy.

Do yourself a favor BACKUP!

I should have said 'a legal CD', not a legal copy. There are no legal copies.

ok, to get in to details with the download problem, well the download bar shows up, and if I choose run then it downloads the information, then a window comes up saying run or dont run, I click run and nothing happens
if I choose to save the file, then the file downloads and after the download completes, then I go to the location where I chose to save it and its not there, and when I check the temporary internet files and try to open it there then the file is empty T_T
someone please help

"how can you tell if the copy is legal or not"

If the game accepts it, it's legal. If it doesn't accept it, it's not.

I have no idea about your download problem.

Ok, beware of Ebay, it's a gamble. With a little patience and searching you can usually find a comparable price elsewhere.

Yes, they will install ok, but the CD will not be recognized as legal and therefore the game will not play.
